If you called your Senators today, post here with your State!!!

Let's try to keep track of which states are being covered.

I just tried to call both of mine (IL)and the one's voicemail said it was full and hung up on me. The other said they are experiencing "high call volume". I somehow think it's probably related to all the other problems IL has been having lately, but I will try again a bit later. Meanwhile, I sent an email.

Let's take a roll call - who's called their Senators about Sen. DeMint' new legislation being introduced to revise the CPSIA tomorrow and what state are you from?

2 states so far. Anyone esle?

I called mine in PA... was able to get through to Casey Jr's voicemail, but Specter's office is swamped and VM box full, even his regional office line is busy.

It's probably the pork-a-palooza stimulus that is swamping the lines, but I'm being optimistic and thinking that part of it is CPSIA stuff! :D

I also emailed my senators just now since the person I spoke with at Feinstein's office said I wouldn't get a response unless I sent in a letter.

I also called mine in PA, I got through to Casey's office, I left a voicemail for someone that Specter's office transferred me to.

I've also been in contact via email with Congressman Dent's office this morning.

I just got a hold of someone in Spector's office... she said the same thing about the letter. She said the best way to actually get a written response that wasn't a form letter is to either fax or send it snail mail.

And I thanked her, and told her that I knew they were swamped and I appreciated her taking the time to speak to me, and she seemed really appreciative! I hope that helps my information get a little further than it would normally!

:D
