    3. skim their bio and find their official site at the references/external link section at the bottom of their wikipedia article
    4. find the contact form section of their website and send a message to them.

    Find your district representative by zip code -

    1. the four numbers after your 5 digit zip: http://zip4.usps.com/zip4/welcome.jsp
    2. find your district rep: https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml
    3. write them a letter


    Helpful instructions from http://www.essortment.com/all/writeyourcongr_rcem.htm:

    Include your address and phone number, the date, their address and a salutation something like the following: To the honorable Senator First M. Last. Now reference the topic including any specifics about bills or issues by their specific numbers or however they are known.

    In the body of your letter make it clear what you know about the topic, what you know about your congressman’s involvement with that issue, what you want and what you will do politically to get it. ... You will be most effective if you come right out and politely but clearly tell your congressman that if they want your vote in the next election they should vote the way you are asking them to on that particular issue. This makes it very certain where you stand and that you are serious.

    You can write about several issues in one letter but may find it more effective to write a separate letter on each issue. If you have any genuine political influence yourself you may want to find a way of making it known as well. ... Sign and date the letter.
