I just cut and pasted the poem into a comment from me to Biden on the White House website. It worked. I'm gonna do it now to Kamala Harris. Then I will cut and paste it into a comment to my Congresswoman (Judy Chu, D Pasadena). I write/scream/bitch to my elected reps on a regular basis not because it will make a difference because they are so full of shit. I do it because I want their interns and staff, and for the White House, their political appointees, to feel guilty (or maybe just a teeny bit uncomfortable) for working for them. It brings a smile to my face when I push submit or hang up the phone, so it's worth it to me. I was a congressional intern like a million years ago, and look at me now! Try it my friends!!
Here's the answer I received from whitehouse.gov, oh the irony!

Thank you for contacting the Biden-Harris Administration.
President Biden and Vice President Harris value every opportunity to engage with the American people, and the Administration is grateful for your outreach. Our country faces many challenges, and messages like yours help us better understand how the Biden-Harris Administration can serve American families.
We take careful note of the suggestions, thoughts, questions, and stories we receive, and we’re working hard to ensure you receive an appropriate response.
I have many of those ha. Occasionally they respond with " Thank you for agreeing with the Senator/Rep view point" ha. Seriously that's how little they care.

Ha. A computer generated message?
Jenny, every time I email congress I am told that they will “keep my views in mind”…
Ha. Probably goes straight into the trash? Keep going.
Maybe people could search the trash bins?

Yep every time. Why would we think there’d be anything different.
I sent it to POTUS on Twitter. I want it to slap them in the face too.
