Calling my reps

[quility]

I managed to call my reps for the first time today! I’ve been making slow progress toward doing it for awhile but finally did it.
I used https://5calls.org/ to tell me who to call and it provided scripts.
It checks off the issue when you report having called.
I’m not sure if it will reset tomorrow and let me call again or keep the check marks.
I didn’t do a great job of staying on topic and kind of babbled about things in general in addition to the topic I chose for the script. I hope that still counts for something.
Any tips appreciated!

I also update that script before picking up the phone, because I'm less likely to stumble over my words if I can read them from the screen instead of remembering what I wanted to say. Even when I use the 5calls scripts, I'm making a few changes--in particular, I'll say "Senator Warren" or "the senator," not the full-name "Senator Elizabeth Warren" style they use.
