Finally, Swanson notes:

"We can also organize in and do polling in swing districts to try to show the electoral advantage to be gained from doing the right thing.  We can also keep pressuring key Congress members like Congressman Wexler and Congresswoman Wasserman-Schultz.  We can do this through local media activism, PR, letters to editors, calls to shows, through visits, phone calls, emails, faxes, letters, post cards, posters, billboards, through honk-to-impeach events where you hold posters saying 'Honk to Impeach' at the side of the street outside their offices, and through events where we sit in and read the Constitution aloud, refusing to leave."

"We can also take our demands directly to the people Congress listens to:  the media.  The fact is that if we had had Fox News and if the other outlets had been in 1974 what they are now, Nixon would never have resigned.  Today, the media do not cover the crimes, the evidence, or the public outrage, and do not poll the public's opinions on impeachment.  We forced the Downing Street minutes into the news two-and-a-half years ago by flooding the media with phone calls, emails, and protests in their lobbies.  That needs to continue."

I would end by saying, consider running against your own Congressman and Senators, at the very least, if they continue to support injustice and war by their inaction.
