Consider this an open thread where you can share your experience contacting the offices.
What worked? What didn't? What response did you get?

Sibel Edmonds is the most gagged person in US history. The government has repeatedly invoked the State Secrets Privilege in her case - not for reasons of 'national security' but to hide ongoing criminal activity. Please call Waxman and Conyers' offices and demand public open hearings into Edmonds' case and the State Secrets Privilege. Links to their contact pages on the right of the blog.

Congressman Waxmans office sent me to an answering machine (although it was after hours) and I told them like it was, I called Conyers office, refered to voicemail, and after a 2 min greeting i was told the voicemail box was full, how about us lobby Congress for more voicemail space for themselves, you know they love it when they get stuff!
thnx chris.
business hours might be the best time!
I think I was helped by having earlier contacted Waxman's office in a helpful way on the Carol Lam story when that broke and was able to identify and use that same contact that talked to me then in a more direct fashion rather than just leaving a message on their switchboard. Hopefully others with direct contact info will contact their contacts in these offices in a similar way to hopefully get more support for Sibel now. I don't want to release the contact's info to the public as I think that would lose my support from that person, but hopefully others can get in this way. If you know of some real strategic people that will keep that contact info discreet, perhaps I can forward my contact info to them and we can keep getting more critical feedback going in to Waxman's office.
thnx calipendence.
did you get a positive response?
