Unless your member of Congress hears from you.. they don’t have any idea of where you stand on a particular bill. Of course… if you DO NOTHING.. you will GET NOTHING…

Customer Reviews
Good app but….
It’s a good app. A nice change needs to be made to make this app more productive and efficient for the purpose it was intended. One, get a flag button on here and take action when used. This is not a place for liberals to be nasty and personally bash republicans and use such vulgar language. We are to post opinions in an adult like manner to get insight on why you think a decision is yea or nay. Funny how I didn’t hear these libbies complaining when their dem congress did nothing for 6 years. So yeah, let’s do that and maybe make this app a more productive place.
Video messaging lawmakers?! Game changed!
This app gets better and better. This new video messaging function is bonkers. A total game changer. I feel like being able to send a video to my Congressmember and Senator allows me to put tone and emotion into my messages to them that I never could do by writing text.
Love discovering new issues that I find out I actually get passionate about, after Countable exposes me to them. Must have app.
Great New App
Countable makes new feel up to date on the latest legislation news. I also like the public profiles that they make to keep me up to date with all these candidates. The search feature makes it easy to find things and now I can send video messages to my representatives.
