This is a grassroots challenge to get friends to participate in democracy by making calls to congresspeople in all 50 states. Live phone calls are the best way to directly express your opinion on an issue to your elected officials. Your mission is to pass message this along to friends who will make calls and also pass the message/link along to others who will do the same. It's a social chain letter and a call to action for a better participatory democracy. We help you make your call and you pass on an invitation for your friends to do the same. Your invite can stress your opinion on a given issue.
