About Democracy Direct

Our mission: making civic engagement effortless, private, and accessible to everyone.

The Problem

Contacting elected representatives is unnecessarily difficult. Finding who represents you requires navigating multiple government websites. Representatives don't publish email addresses. Most people don't know how to write an effective letter. Existing tools require accounts and track usage.

Data Sources

All representative data comes from public sources:
