Hi, I’m Resistbot! What would you like to write to Congress?

Congress needs to pass H.R.1 now. It will increase voting access and has strong bipartisan support.

Sounds great! I’ll deliver that to Senators Rubio and Scott, and Representative Castor. 🤖

Resistbot is the smartest technology to emerge from the disaster that was the 2016 election. No one else even comes close.
