Want to Know a Congressman? Know www.Congress.org

If you want to see what the hottest issues are for advocates looking for relief from Congress just check out Congress.org  As a part of the Roll Call family, Congress.org is a central location for action alerts published by their Capitol Advantage clients, relevant advertising by coalitions and corporations around major issues, and the ability to email your Member of Congress and whatever issue is on your mind.

Congress.org is really a one-stop-shop for those seeking information about Congress, specific issues, and legislators.

 Congress.org allows users to:
  • Identify and contact elected leaders in Congress, the White House and state legislatures
  • Post letters online and see what other Americans are saying to elected officials
  • Create and post "Soapbox" action alerts to enlist others on your issue.
  • Have letters printed and hand delivered to Congress.
  • Find and contact local and national media by ZIP code or by state with the "Media Guide".
  • Have your representatives votes sent to you by weekly email.
  • Search alerts and take action in the "Issues and Calls to Action" area
  • As a client, get your action alerts posted there and on Yahoo!, MSN, AOL and other sites.
If you're running a low cost advocacy campaign, take advantage of the free opportunities available to you on this site.
