There are two ways to effectively motivate our elected representatives in Washington.

The first is the easiest. Contribute the most campaign funding. If you have the means to raise thousands of dollars, better yet, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars for the men and women running for Congress and President, then you can be assured your interests will be a top priority. You will be able to regularly meet in-person with your Senators, Congressmen and even the President and Vice President, and more importantly you¹ll have direct access to the people on their staff who get things done. Best of all, they will want to help you and make you happy.

If you¹re like the vast majority of Americans, paying for your influence will not be an option and you will have to rely on the democratic principles of representative government. That means making your voice as a citizen heard by writing and calling your elected officials.

When enough individuals with the same viewpoint communicate this way we become "The Voice of The People" and are then too powerful to ignore.

It doesn¹t take a tidal wave of letters, email or phone calls to get their attention in the nation¹s capitol. Several hundred people wrote and called to complain about the 2000 Census forms and it made national news for weeks.
