After such a polarizing election season , it's no surprise that some people have very strong feelings about the outcome of the presidential race . You may agree or disagree with the result , but it's also important you remember that the presidency is not the only office with power.The U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives are in charge of passing and blocking many laws that directly impact your day-to-day life. In the next four years, it's very likely that the Republican-controlled Congress will support many of the proposals of the future Trump administration.But as a constituent, you have the right to voice whether you're in favor or not of those measures, and request that your elected representative take action.And the truth is, reaching out to them is way easier than you think!
