Content: People from Congress pay attention to those who are politically active, as they're seeking out likeminded people to help them gain favor in the community. If you want to make an impact, increase your current involvement in politics. If you are already part of an organization, for example, take on a leadership position or plan an event. This could get your congressman's attention. If you're not already part of a political organization, look for advocacy groups in your area that interest you. If you're interested in immigration reform, for example, you could join an immigration advocacy group. You could also start your own group or lead your own initiative within the community or an existing group. Look to your Facebook and other social networks to find likeminded people who share your political views. Consider getting together with them to do something like start a petition or stage a protest. This could potentially get the attention of a member of Congress.
