I just called Ron Johnson’s office and it told me that the voicemail box is full and the system did not give me another option for contacting my representative and then hung up on me.

I would like to think the voicemail box is full, but this man is a pathetic little weasel and it would not surprise me if they set the voicemail to give that message and hang up on constituents.

This won’t be the last time I try contacting our Representatives, Republican, Democrat and any other party to voice my utter disdain for what is being done in our government right now and demand they take care of the people who elected them.

If you are able, please go to your representative’s offices in person. They need to see the faces and hear the voices of the people they are screwing over.

This was my experience for 100 consecutive days during Trump 1.0.

Tammy’s office picked up the phone every single time I called.

I posted this on a now-deleted thread, but you also could try sending his office faxes using a free online fax service. But I agree also going in person is a good option since who know if they even have these plugged in!

Here are fax numbers, organized by location:

┌──────────────────────┬────────────────┐
│   Office Location    │   Fax Number   │
╞══════════════════════╪════════════════╡
│ Washington, D.C.     │ (202) 228-6965 │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────┤
│ Milwaukee, Wisconsin │ (414) 276-7284 │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────┤
│ Madison, Wisconsin   │ (608) 240-9646 │
├──────────────────────┼────────────────┤
│ Oshkosh, Wisconsin   │ (920) 230-7262 │

Ron Johnson only works for the rich business men. He doesn't care about you and doesn't want to hear about your concerns. Its pointless. I've contacted him over the years about Veterans issues and never once heard back.

They weren't born yesterday. They know exactly what they're doing and don't give a flying fuck.

I understand they've done a very fine job of pacifying us, but violence is the ONLY path to actual change, and people need to realize this before violence isn't even an option.

This needs to be a campaign ad in 2026 for the Dems. A TV ad asking the viewer to call RJ and whoever the dems put up. With a tag line like "I care enough to pick up"

Can confirm calls do not get answered. Voicemails are listened to and logged in the computer system. Anyone who has an opposing view is listed as “uninformed”

Everyone should download the 5 Calls app- helps you find and call your reps with a script of what to say to them if you don’t know - pretty convenient

I don't mean to be ignorant, but does calling your representative actually do anything? I've always figured the calls go through an assistant or intern and they just delete the messages

He's been doing this for years. Nothing has changed with him.

Yet people keep re-electing him anyways.

Right, like Ron Johnson really cares what you think or want?

That should almost be illegal for a public representative. You have a staff that can move those and clear it. If you are out representative at least we should have a way to have our voices heard even if he wants to ignore us. I guess there are always letters but to not accept calls is BS.

Use snail mail or email. Plus with all the BS coming out of DC right now, his voice mail might very well be full.

I started investigating if American citizens could demand military intervention.

Of course it won’t happen because the Republican/Christian Extremists now own all branches of Federal Government. But it would hurt to start calling ALL Senators and House Representatives (R or D) demanding military removal of Trump/Vance all Trump executives and a recount. It might also ferret out the sleeper cells in Congress and throughout the country. Let them face our military.

Yes, American citizens can request a military intervention by contacting their elected officials. They can also ask their elected officials to make a Congressional Inquiry on their behalf.

How to request a military intervention

Contact your elected officials Ask them to make a Congressional Inquiry on your behalf

What factors are considered when deciding on military intervention?

National security interests: The intervention should defend national security interests. Public support: The intervention should have congressional and public support.

Military goals: The intervention should have clearly defined, decisive, attainable, and sustainable military goals.

Ability to meet other security commitments: The intervention should not jeopardize the ability to meet more important security commitments.

I also tried calling around the same time and had a similar experience. You may have better luck calling tomorrow around 10 am after the staff has presumably listened to the voicemails.

Otherwise, fill out the form on his website.

Only elected federal representative I’ve emailed on issues to never reply with anything at all. Not even a hollow “we care about this issue too” reply.
