Joan, your list is helpful.  Thanks for posting it.

Thank you for trying to send the list, Kate.  The website that Joan posted

http://www.contactingthecongress.org/ does include an updated list of phone numbers and faxes so I will use that.  Thanks again for trying to post your list.  I had a book published by Grassfire.org for the previous Congress and it was terrific because it included all the information in one little book that you could carry to a phone or fax machine.  I emailed them and asked if they would be publishing a new one for the new Congress, but never got a response.

Judy J what I like about this list:

1) easy access to person's website

2) the history of the person;

   a) did they have any business experience or was it all government only.

   b) when were they elected and when is the next election.

   c) the committees they are on and a direct link to the committee and its fax numbers.

3) It is being updated as fast as possable.

4) I can use this to get to a specfic person and use their website or phone number immediatly.

Thank you for the information, Joan.  I've been hoping to get a list that includes phone and fax numbers for the new Congress.  It will be so much easier than looking each one up individually.

Contacting the Congress

http://www.contactingthecongress.org/

is a very up-to-date database of congressional contact information for the 112th Congress. As of January 19, 2011 there are 531 email addresses (of which 527 are Web-based email homepages), and 540 WWW homepages known for the 540 members of the 112th Congress. Traditional ground mail addresses are available for all current members of Congress.

I just found a great site HOW PROGRESSIVE IS YOUR CONGRESS PERSON?

 

 

ProgressivePunch is a non-partisan searchable database of Congressional voting records. from a Progressive perspective. But we're convinced it's extremely useful irrespective of anyone's political positions.

We show the performance of members within 160 different issue categories, and detailed vote descriptions, thereby empowering you to zero in on what matters to you.
