It’s worth mentioning that if you have time to read political blogs, you have time to pick up the telephone and call your member of congress and tell his or her office whether you support or oppose the health care reform bill. Members of congress, for good or for ill, take this kind of constituent contact seriously. Even if it’s ultimately not decisive in changing their mind, they still note it. I don’t get representation in congress, but if you do you ought to put that fact to use.
