E-mailing U.S. Congress Members May Not Be Effective
Submitted by Scott on Tue, 2001-03-20 22:33
According to this ZDNet story (found on Slashdot), " Members of Congress are inundated with so many e-mail messages from constituents and special interest groups--80 million last year alone--that lawmakers routinely ignore most of them, according to a new study." A disturbing part of the report claims that citizen's expectations should be lowered, and that people have no right to expect a response to electronic communications with Congressmen and women.
