Contacting your senators is so easy.

https://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm?OrderBy=state&Sort=ASC

Find them on that list, click their name, and you'll be taken to their contact form.

I just wrote both of mine, letting them know they should tell Mitch to shove it on the SCOTUS seat. Literally took less than two minutes!

I've always seen Resistbot less for the lazy& more for those who have less time to craft a full letter or those with hearing impairments or anxiety that makes phone calls to MOCs difficult.
Personally, I use it daily on my bus ride to work every morning. Quick& simple, it gets my message across& I can start my day feeling like I've accomplished something before I even have my morning coffee.

I use Resistbot for certain things and the phone for others. It allows me to make multiple contacts on different issues to different government representatives, not just members of Congress.

I would not categorize it as lazy and am not a huge fan of the word as it has ableist connotations.

@TonyStark @AgentCarter_SSR @endarchy @artilectzed Gotta love the internet anarchists mowing over us living with disabilities. Nothing new.

@JoannaBee @TonyStark @AgentCarter_SSR @artilectzed I'm have disabilities myself and so does my SO.

Thanks for making an assumption. ๐Ÿ‘

@endarchy @TonyStark @AgentCarter_SSR @artilectzed Then take an attempt at updating your terminalogy. Living with a disability doesn't excuse your asshole behavior on the internet.

@JoannaBee @TonyStark @AgentCarter_SSR @artilectzed My "asshole" behavior?

Because I don't find the term "lazy" even the slightest ableist?

Go find a new hobby, pal. Language policing isn't a good one.
