Does it make any difference if I email, write, or call Congresswoman Giffords?
Yes, contacting your representative makes a difference. Any form of correspondence is an additional piece of information your Member of Congress may use to make their decision when voting. With the number of issues before Congress, your email, letter, or phone call could be the only way that your Member knows how their constituency feels about a particular issue. Emails are the most preferable way of contacting the Congresswoman. Since September 11th, it can take up to four weeks for our office to receive mail, delaying the conveyance of your opinions and concerns as well as our response. Emails are the fastest and most efficient form of communication and are treated in the same manner as “normal” mail. For more information, see our Contact section.
