ContactDemocracy
ContactDemocracy is a website that's designed to make it even easier to contact your elected officials about issues that matter to you. Just select your location, and ContactDemocracy will generate contact information for all your elected officials, and offer to add it to your device's contacts app. Then, whenever you want to contact them, just tap/click on the contact in your device's contacts app!

The data comes from the Google Civic Information API.

Note that there are definitely issues with some browsers. For example, the Facebook browser doesn't seem to want to invoke a device's contacts app.

I'd appreciate any suggestions or bug reports. Thanks!

This is great! Import worked very neatly on my Android device. Are you at a point in development where I can/should direct people to it?

Awesome, glad it worked! Yes, I'd be happy if you'd share it with people - I hope it gets some use.

I don't have any current plans for major changes, and it seems to work for most people on most devices on most mainstream standalone browsers.
