Getting at Lawmakers

We've lost a certain amount of free speech because so many lawmakers block everyone from posting e-mail feedback to them through their websites.  Every time I post a message to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and others, I have to lie about my address.  I find myself going to a Chamber of Commerce website in their state, picking out an address and phone number, adjusting them a little, returning to their websites, entering the bad data, and posting my message to them.  It's so frustrating because, in fact, these people have made me one of their constituents and they will not accept my e-mail.  Don't you think there are now non-Nevada citizens (in the case of Reid), of any political party or no political party, who want/need to get their message to these people?  It seems like we need to make this a law, that all lawmakers need to allow incoming mail from ALL states!  They are impacting all of us now, in a great way!  They are impacting my nation's security.  While I don't, if I did have a daughter or son fighting in Iraq and they were trying to make it less than possible for my child to succeed, I would be much more angry than I am right now!  It seems illegal that they exercise the right to block citizens from the other 49 states from giving them our opinion by e-mail.  Isn't it "for the people", or is it just for a few of their constituents in their home state?  What can we do to change this?
