With the shooting in El Paso, I’ve devoted the call your MoC post today to gun violence. In the quick dip, I give you information about contacting your MoC to demand that they support gun reform action. In the shallow dive, there is information about gun reform advocacy groups, events, and stuff. And in the deep dive, I’ve included resources on the arcane statistics and legal information about gun violence.
Your weekly MoC call list is a doozy! It is chock-a-block full of follow-up to the Mueller Congressional testimony, impeachment inquiry demands, and protecting our elections. There are also updates on past issues, a bonus issue that you won’t believe, and contacts for Indivisible.

But, keeping up with all those issues and bills and hearings and stuff is not. So, here’s a handy-dandy do-it-yourself guide to help out, and my top five issues that I’m contacting my member of Congress about this week! It’s now a weekly post on Ye Olde Blogge! Look for it every Sunday!
