Finally it is complete - the list of Representatives on Facebook! Total number of Representatives on Facebook who are not yet cosponsors of HR 3101: 219! That's at least half of the total number of Representatives in Congress! Check out the greatly expanded list. Use these pages to either post a message on the wall, or if it is a personal page, send a private email to your Representative.
Your message or email can be long and detailed, or it can be as short as "I am deaf. I want captions online. Please cosponsor HR 3101."
Update: The Caption Action 2 blogroll has a downloadable spreadsheet of Congress staff contacts. This spreadsheet has a Facebook column.

Wall Your Representative on Facebook!
Another possible way for you to reach out and touch your Representative is via Facebook! Some representatives (not all) are on Facebook. Caption Action 2 did the research for you so you don't have to. To be able to post on the Representative's page, you will have to become a "fan." In a few cases, the pages are actually personal pages and you can send messages. See the list below! Members of the Subcommittee on Communications, Technology, and the Internet are indicated with an asterik (*).
When you post your message on your Representative's wall, be sure to mention HR 3101 (they need that number to be able to research the bill) at a minimum. You can also link to Caption Action 2 (http://www.causes.com/captionaction2) so they can see how many people have already joined. One benefit of posting on your Representative's wall: You never know who might see your message! It could be a hearing person with a deaf or hard of hearing family member. It could be a local newspaper reporter. Your message will help to get the word out in your own community.
