A few basic approaches:
1. If you are not interested in speaking to an office staffer, call after hours and leave a message. I searched old threads on FR and found this quote regarding contacting congress.
If you want, you can write out what you want to say ahead of time and just read it to the recorder. This way you don’t even have to identify yourself if you don’t want to. The one thing I do recommend is to say that you are a registered voter in their district. -wneighbor
2. You may choose to speak to someone in the office when you call - ask for public accountability. It's not enough for staffers to tell callers that the congress person "feels strongly" and "agrees with" and is "working behind the scenes...". You may ask when and where the congress person will speak out against the attempts to remove a duly elected president. You may ask when they will be publicly demonstrating their support of the rule of law ("we voted for this president, congress doesn't get to replace him with their preference") and that you will follow up with them as long as the congress person fails to represent voters. Here's another old post re the fact that your call/letter "counts" more than you may realize.
I don’t know the exact formula used today but it was the case that public officials assumed each call represented @ 700 voters, of which 699 don’t call - EDINVA
3. You may write a letter, Tweet, and use other social media to hold them accountable.
4. We are in this for the long haul, so I will pass along the wisdom of other FReepers and recommend that you put your congress persons on speed dial on your phone. You may even tell your congress person that you've done so because President Trump is giving power back to the people.
Since congress ignored us during the Bush, Clinton and Obama years, many have gotten out of the habit of contacting their congress person; it was clear they weren't about to work for us. We have to teach them THINGS HAVE CHANGED.
President Trump has done far more than enough to win our support in his battle with the Deep State and Media. Imagine what a shock the Swamp will endure if we ALL CALL, WRITE, TWEET etc. at once! And we KEEP DOING IT until they learn who is in charge!
You may call them daily or every few days - however much time you feel is reasonable; if they aren't willing to support the rule of law, then contact them until they do.
The following website provides an excellent central hub for identifying and contactng (email, Facebook, Twitter, phone, letter etc.) your sentators and representative.
Fight for Trump! Fight for the Republic! Arrest traitors!!

Liz, do you still have the lists of names addresses and phone numbers?
I emailed my supposedly moderate Democrat freshman congresswoman two days ago and politely but emphatically told her that all five voting age members of my household are appalled at her decision to jump on the impeachment bandwagon without having any facts or waiting to hear from her constituents on the matter. Today I received a Linked In message listing who has been searching for me on Linked In. The searchers included the United States House of Representatives. Didn’t expect to see that but st least her staff will know I am not a bot or a lunatic.
BTTT
ADD TWO IN ON THIS ACTION
Democrats: Give us Barabbas!
I’d like to beat them over the head with the phone, but I guess calling will have to do....for now....:-]
Tennessee folks need to call Lamar Alexander’s office. He needs to hear how we fully support President Trump.
Lamar’s office assistant said he is still waiting to see all the facts. I can’t believe he will not take a stand to support President Trump.
Thankfully, Senator Marsha Blackburn has already publicly stated her support for the President. It would be nice if other TN people let her know how much we appreciate her.
Don’t worry about calling congress. Let it be a surprise to the democrats in November 2020 when they see the results of the vote.
Bttt
Thanks for the ping. I’m stepping it up a few notches. Great suggestions.
Please bump this thread as needed to keep it going.
Feel free to pick up the text of the post above, modify and improve it, and post it again.
We need to sharpen our skills and encourage one another to be active in demanding justice because we finally have a president willing to fight for us.
FIGHT for President TRUMP!

Jon Voight gets it...I “liked” and Retweeted his tweet.
Anyone who has a twitter account needs to do the same.
The house GOP leadership needs to be called on the carpet, where the F are they in all of this? where? They will go down like the rat ship!!!! Not a peep from these spineless fu##s
Prosecuting this coup is in Trump’s hands. He owns the Department of Justice, and he hasn’t used it yet.
It’s Saturday.
Have you called and left a message for your congress critter today? :)
Tell those people THEY WORK FOR US!!!!
