it used to be that when you write to your senator or congressional representative, you’d always get a response.
usually just a dumb, barely responsive form-letter precomposed about whatever issue you addressed. but still. something.
nowadays i find it is usually nothing. there is just no response, whether the communication is by submitting an online form, or sending certified postal mail.
i know. i am old.
