Pick up the phone


Call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and ask to speak to the leaders from your state and/or district by name. If you're not sure who your Representative is, you can look it up here.

You'll be connected with a member of your legislator's staff. You will need to make one call for each of your legislators.

What to say when you call

Feel free to read directly from this list:

  • NO BLANK CHECKS to our State DOTs - We need to require that states fix the bridges and roads that we have now, not build new highways to nowhere. Please demand accountability for how our hard-earned taxpayer money gets spent.
  • SHOW US THE JOBS - Make every state, Metropolitan Planning Organization and city show how they spend the money, the number of jobs created, and the quality of jobs created.
  • GET MONEY TO OUR METRO AREAS AND LOCAL TOWNS IN ADDITION TO STATES - So that our towns can meet their local transportation needs.
  • MAKE IT GREEN - Make it a down payment on a clean, green 21st Century transportation system. Invest in walking, biking, and transit.

Then, help us keep a tally of the calls by using the form below to tell us how your call or calls went. Thank you for your support!
