Will this work? Yes. Senators and Reps have staff who check their messages and mail each and every day and report back to their bosses with an overview of constituent calls. They hear you and you affect their decisions.
Do I have to respond to every issue? Of course not! First of all, if the views expressed here don't necessarily align completely with your specific opinions on the topic, feel free to adapt our scripts or pick and choose from them. And secondly, you are not expected to ever be able to act on everything. Whatever you have time for counts.
How are we connected to Highly Independent?Good question! Highly Indy and Teens Resist are innately connected in our similar dedication to youth involvement and voice. Teens Resist focuses on being a resource and politics center for teens, while Highly Indy serves as an online journalism platform for teen voice and opinion. (Highly Indy's website.)
