1) Dail 1-800-444-1555

2) They will give you a short recorded message.

3) Follow instructions if you have a touch tone phone, public ones work
best and they have other advantages. :>

4) Enter a zip code...they ask for yours but it doesn't have to be...it can
be any in the US.

5) Make a choice of the elected politician's office you want to be connected to.

6) When the staff person answers you are set to discuss the proposed
environmental reform regulations, OR ANY OTHER ISSUE YOU WANT!

Couple of tricks...we found they limit the number of calls to 3 from each
number.  Solution:  public phones are everywhere...enjoy Exxon's
corporate attempt to influence "grassroots democracy".
