About this Applet

Email elected officials and their contact details for a US street address. When an iOS Shortcut automation is started, the applet asks Cicero for the elected officials at the address you configure (or pass from Shortcuts) and sends an HTML email with their names, offices, and contact links via Email. Great for civic outreach, advocacy, or keeping representative contacts handy using iOS Shortcuts, Cicero, and Email. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
