But first, we need to let Congress know that we are not going to put up with it. Letters, faxes, and phone calls are just too easy for them to ignore. Shy of a couple million of us showing up on their lawn, this is about the best idea we've come up with yet.

SEND-A-BRICK.COM UPDATE
Alright, because we have 100 different opinions on here I made an executive decision.
Because of the gripes that May 5th was too soon, I changed it to May 30th, Memorial Day.
That gives about 2 months for PHASE 1. I think that's a good time span to get the word out and the bricks to be delievered.
PHASE 2-3 will be the summer campaign. (But, remember Congress goes on vacation in the summer)
I'm thinking:
Phase 2 - June 1st to July 4th
Phase 3 - July 4th - Sept 11th
As said before this needs to happen NOW while the iron is hot and the issue is being debated. That means you start in May and it might all be over. Setting a timeline in the first place gives people motivation to get their bricks in before that date. Make it too long and it will be ignored up until the end date.
If you absolutely hate this, please let me know. But I think this will be better for everyone.
