Learn about RepresentUs, a nonpartisan grassroots organization working to mobilize public support in order to persuade local and state governments to adopt popular policies and reforms. The organization has found that resistance from political parties in power, plus the fact that public opinion has little impact on federal legislation, has made this kind of effort more effective than trying to lobby Congress.
