Q: Our employees are interested in knowing how their representative and senators vote on important legislation. Is this something ASA members can find out?

A: Yes. ASA members can find out how their federal representative and senators vote on key issues by signing up for MegaVote. Part of CapWiz, ASA’s online grassroots action center, MegaVote provides a weekly email that informs subscribers how their representatives in Congress are voting on key issues. Each MegaVote message provides brief descriptions of major bills that were voted on, with links to detailed information. The votes of your legislators are shown, and links let you send timely messages to Congress before or after each vote. The service is free and easy to use. To sign up, visit the Contact Your Legislator page on the ASA Web site: americanstaffing.net.
