Government shutdown: What is Drunk Dial Congress and how does it work? You’ll get to talk to someone in Congress, even when drunk (Video)

So what exactly is DrunkDialCongress.org and how does it work? If you are angry enough at the government shutdown and went for a drink, going to drunkdialcongress.org might just be the thing to do.

You put in your phone number on DrunkDialCongress.org and “an inebriated voice from a 1-800 number will call you back and ask, ‘Is this government shutdown making you want to drink?’ before transferring to Capitol Hill.” Once you are transferred to some random Representative or maybe an intern, you do have the chance to talk to a real person and to sound off about the government shutdown.
