    The capitol switchboard is 202 224-3121. It takes seconds to call, say the name of one of these 10 and verbalize your displeasure.

    A short, calm message about your anger at their shameful conduct of censuring al green is most effective, especially if you’re in their constituency.

    “Please tell the representative that they’re a disgraceful bootlicking traitor” just feels more appropriate though.
