Text Resistbot at 50409 and have it write and send a letter to your representatives. All of them.

Just give it a news article and it’s AI whips it up for you to proof read.

Give it a try and make your voices heard.

And what's best is they now have a new cell number for marketing they can then sell to companies!

This is a bad idea to end all bad ideas.

Let's give them an excuse to close their means of communication to the people to "combat AI spam".

I couldn't imagine a faster way to make our voices useless than to fill our representatives' inboxes with AI spam...

This service is the most dystopian thing I've seen in a while.

"You know what's gonna fix democracy? Reducing civic engagement to having AI generate letters based off AI-generated articles to send to our representatives, who will filter and summarize them using AI, and plug the input into the law-making AI! The downfall of democracy was humanity's capacity for independent thought!"
