Do I know any web coders that are really angry at government right now, and want to make it easier to contact your state-level reps specifically?

Because even if democracy.io doesn't do it, they did reply to this change-request: github.com/sinak/democracy.io/ and basically lay out how they'd go about doing it.

It's totally doable, it just pushes past EFF's stance on privacy policies. But it seems like you could just, you know, add a checkbox that says "by clicking this, I understand you're going to submit my address to Google's API" which is like. Fine? Because having a tool for this would be a huge net good?

The way things are going it's uuhhhhh pretty likely state governments are gonna quickly become more important to our day to day lives than fed because <sweating> so,

you know, having some tools laid in ahead of time to nudge said governments seems like a pretty good idea <cough> <panic> <cough>

So ANYWWAAYS, resistance comes in all forms, and this would be something someone could do! Just, not me, because I'm fucking awful at server shit.

My work is more in the realms of making little bird people who quietly encourage the kids to be gay and do crimes.
