Why make a "quick call?

From the New York Times

A phone call from a constituent can, indeed, hold more weight than an email, and far outweighs a Facebook post or a tweet.

From the New Yorker

There are a great many ways to petition the government, including with actual petitions, but, short of showing up in person, the one reputed to be the most effective is picking up the phone and calling your congressional representatives.

From the Texas Council for Developmental Disabilities

Your advocacy efforts are an important factor in helping to shape public policy. You might, however, be reluctant to advocate on pending legislation for fear of doing something wrong — or because you get nervous around public officials. It is completely normal to feel uneasy around elected officials, as they can often appear to be larger than life. Just remember, though, that legislators are people just like you — people who want to improve life in their communities.
