Elected Officials not responding to calls or letters

#1

Post by powerboatr »

Anyone else noticed that
both the state and federal elected person have been surprisingly delinquent in answering or even acknowledging emails or calls to their office

I send all the fed guys either a phone call, letter or an email once every two weeks and they are not all complaining.
our state guys only one a month on a wide range of issues, some more than one a week
but all in all over the past three years I usually get a note back or a call from an office person acknowledging my concerns or compliments


but the last 3 months, almost a ZERO response, even dependable Hensarling has gone quiet

I was curious if it was the same for others or are they just ignoring me? Which would require me to write 3 a week.

No one told you? All your mail has been and continues to be seized by the Department of Homeland Security. :biggrinjester:

I sent an email to Sen Cornyn back in early December. Finally got the response in late Feb. It was a very generic response.

You don't think they are getting a lot larger volume of calls and mail lately do you? :evil2:
Perhaps overwhelming their staff?

It's just you. "rlol"
I feel the same on this forum sometimes. Just take a look at my posts and how often mine is the last in the threads.

To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic-TN
