Contacting a Congressmam Anonymous 2017-02-28 04:09:42 Post No. 18089268 [Report]

Hey /adv/, l have some questions regarding Congress.

I'm a third-world English student and l wrote a paper in which l cited a couple of US Representatives. Now l need to get in touch with "experts" on the issue, and figured my best bet would be the two people l referenced. But the thing is that l'm not sure whether they'd reply to some random foreigner asking them specific questions about what might be considered a hot-button issue.

So my questions for you guys are: have you ever contacted a sitting Congressman with a specific inquiry? Did you get a reply? If yes, was it an actual reply, or just a canned response?

I know this might be regarded as a /pol/ thread by some, but l'm legit asking for advice on something l have no idea how to approach.

Thanks. <3

Sometimes they answer, sometimes not. It doesn't hurt to try.

You can also try finding a law professor who is an expert on it and emailing them - they would be more likely to answer I think.

The Honorable John Smith
Congressman from Indiana
Capital Building
Washington DC

might not be the exact address, but it will get to him. The mail will be opened by an aide, who might pass it on to his boss or send you the text of a speech or statement the boss made on the subject. You won't be ignored.

Thing is in the US they have to answer you in some form. Don't know if that applies to a foreigner though.
