Dear Visitors,

Great news! We have re-enabled The 99 Cents Lobby site to function again!

 

Please be aware, however, that our elected officials still stubbornly refuse to utilize this site. Unfortunately they may never read your important "letter" that you write here. They continue to demand that emails must go through their individual web sites forcing you to visit hundreds of different sites to contact them and of course, there is no guarantee that they will actually "read" that email either!

 

We remain extremely hopeful that with increased usage and our continual encouragement and invitation to them that they will join the site eventually. A congressional consultant has told us that we may need to be much larger in volume to be "recognized". Please recommend to your representatives through their sites that they utilize this web site.

 

Even though all their votes can affect ALL our lives, businesses and future, our elected officials often say they do not have the time to read emails from people outside their district or state. However, they somehow manage to make time to meet with lobbyists and large contributors (Waxman met with Solyndra executives!), attend fundraising events, go on "fact finding" trips around the world and go on television shows all the time. Perhaps one day they will listen to you and all of us in The 99 Cents Lobby as well.

 

Please visit us on Facebook for more information and updates on which elected officials are joining The 99 Cents Lobby and which ones refuse! And thank you for your support through the years!
