I genuinely don't mean to be a dick, but you realize that you were speaking to either an intern or a young-20's staff assistant (secretary) that makes $30,000 a year and has likely never spoken directly to the Senator, right? Especially someone like Feinstein, who's a huge deal.

Like I said, I'm not trying to be a dick. But unfortunately, whatever you've got to say never reaches the Senator or anyone else that matters. The best you get out of calling your senators is a clear statement on where they stand on the issue -- and even that isn't guaranteed.
