I know this doesn't really relate to this list, but I find this practice
*very* disturbing.   It is often the case that an MC from another state is
sponsoring/supporting an important bill which will potentially affect all
citizens, not just the ones in her/his own district.  That is the nature of
a *federal* government!  Why should I be barred from giving my input (via
e-amil or any other means) about such measure just because I don't happen to
be in the position to reassure or defeat their re-election?  I'm still
affected by the outcome!  Please, please, pass this message on to your
representatives, since it appears that I would not be able to do so!
