You have three members of Congress: one representative (based on your address) and two senators (your whole state). All three count your mail, and each has district offices near you. Every letter in this campaign starts with knowing exactly who yours are.
For U.S. citizens — find your three members
If you’re a U.S. citizen: You have three members of Congress, and all three count your mail — but only yours. Find out who represents you and where your letter lands hardest
Your representative: go to house.gov/representatives → enter your ZIP code or state → it returns your representative’s name and district. For exact results, use your full ZIP+4 — some ZIP codes split between districts.
Your two senators: go to senate.gov/senators → select your state → both senators are listed with their office addresses.
Write down each office’s district address — that’s where you mail the letter in Step 3. District offices handle casework; DC offices handle policy staff.
Note which party each member belongs to — it picks your letter template in Step 3: red districts get the family or competitiveness template, blue districts get the leadership template, and the universal template works for any office.
Also identify your candidates (before November 3): search “[your state] 2026 congressional candidates” or check your Secretary of State’s website for the official candidate list — Step 4 needs their campaign addresses.
For affected people outside the U.S. — your recruitment is your representation
If you’re not U.S. citizen: You can’t write to Congress — but your American friends, family, and petitioner can, for you. See how your voice gets carried into Congress
You can’t vote, and your letter won’t be counted as a constituent’s. But your U.S. citizen petitioner, your American relatives, your friends, classmates, and coworkers inside the U.S. — every one of them is a constituent whose letter counts fully. And you are the person who can mobilize them.What to do:
Make your list — everyone you know inside the U.S. who cares about you: your petitioner, spouse, siblings, cousins, former classmates, coworkers, professors, neighbors.
Send them this campaign — [endthetravelban.org] — with one personal line: “This is my situation. You can write as my constituent voice. Here’s the letter template.”
Ask them to do Steps 1–3 — get their campaign address, identify their representatives, send the letter.
Offer your story — a friend’s letter that includes your reality (“my friend has been waiting since 2024 for an approved visa”) is stronger than a letter about abstractions.
One letter from an American citizen who loves you carries your voice into a congressional office, on the record. Ten of them, in ten states, is a movement.
