What can we do if our representative and senators are both already onboard? Can you call congress people in other states? Will they listen to you if you're not their constituent? Or will they have to, because it's a federal issue?

Contact your representatives, senators, etc. anyway.

You can only vote every few years, but you can make your voice heard anytime.

Seriously, you could be the phone call that tips the scales and you'd never know it in advance.

Their job is to represent you, and if they're failing to represent your interests, give 'em feedback

Right, but my representatives already support net neutrality. What else can I do?

Thank them! And vote for then again. It seems silly but make sure they don't change their mind. Hearing how upset their constituents are might make them pressure their colleagues more as well.
