About this Applet
Email the current U.S. senators and representatives for a state or territory to your inbox. When 'Any new note' is added to the Note widget, the Applet asks Congress.gov for the members for the state name you typed and sends an HTML email listing their names, party, chamber, district, and profile links. Great for journalists, advocates, or constituents who want quick reference and contact information from Congress.gov delivered by Email. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.

Create your own workflow
Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.
