Americans are taking an active role in their democracy, and their representatives can’t handle it

From the site:

Every Tuesday since January 20th, a group of Rep. Dana Rohrabacher’s (R-CA) constituents have gone to his local office in Huntington Beach, California, to try to get the answer to one key question: When can they talk to their representative?

When they showed up on January 31st, however, they were met with a locked door. One person was able to talk to staff through the intercom, but then the staff stopped answering. Eventually, the police came out from inside the locked office — where they appeared to have been waiting for the constituents to show up.
