I have a plan.

He can ignore us, he can ignore the phone, he can ignore his email, but the post office always delivers. If we make a big enough pile of mail on his office doorstep he won’t be able to ignore it. I want him to have to go buy a snow shovel to get in.

I have made a form for people to submit messages and I’ve set aside some money. For each message submitted, I will be mailing Bill a physical postcard, with your message on it. Together, we can drown his office in physical mail.

It might not make his listen, but if we can make the pile of mail big enough, it will get his attention.

A better option might be to organize town halls for him. Get a venue, publicize it, invite the press, and invite him. Have alternative speakers lined up for when he inevitably doesn't show. Include a life-size cardboard cutout of him to stand in for him as well.

Do a series of them. He doesn't want to do town halls because it would look bad in the news for him. But town halls with the constituents but with only a cardboard cutout stand-in would make him look even worse.

Someone commented about FaxZero[1] on another post. Send 5 faxes per day for free, no account needed. Let’s flood their fax machine. ChatGPT is great for drafting a 3 page letter with all your concerns 😉

As a person who has not only sent him emails and letters AND personally dropped off copies at his Portage office, he only answers the easy ones with his form letters. My social security statement got the form letter about 4 weeks later. My 8 letters about Wall Street got NOTHING. No response. Not even a stupid form letter. That's how I know he's bought and paid for by Wall Street.

the emails and phone calls do matter. His staff has to document them and it takes resources . he may not respond to them all because he's a nasty republican but keep letting him know how you feel.

He was quoted this week as saying he prefers the website since he can focus on letters from his district. I say this not to discourage you one bit, but to suggest this as an additional avenue for any of us who do live in district. I still expect no reply or a form letter at best.

Just initiate recall! If they won't take your calls, answer emails, or make themselves available to you in any way, do what your boss would do and fire him. Recall his position! No call no show.

You're forgetting he works for you.

Ahh yes, the usual same 40 people complaining in their echo chamber. Do it. I would love to see the outcome.

Stop posting on Reddit and actually do something, don't be like your liberal politicians with talk, actually act. It's Sunday March 9th, I give you two weeks to actually have a fundamental ground work in place.
