Well, I know there is more than me working on issues. Legislators do get more phone calls and emails than from just me, so I think the word we is a fact and not a matter of faith.
The key is getting enough people on board for that particular issue to make a difference. It's not like all of those phone calls and emails are about the same thing or that you are sending those phone calls and emails to every legislator.
If 500 people send one congressional rep emails about 500 different things, nothing will ever come of it.
Everyone has to be on the same page, about the same issues, and make their voices heard by every legislator for a single issue like the one we are discussing to be dealt with effectively.
That requires faith in others to take up the cause and put forth the effort along with you.
