Both the California ISP Association (www.cispa.org) and the American ISP Association (www.aispa.org) are active on this issue. You can contact/join one of these to coordinate. CISPA is a California group only in the sense that there was a critical mass of ISPs getting steamrolled by SBC Pacific Bell in California that decided they had to work together. Cooperation with ISPs outside Ca. are absolutely welcome. CISPA has a mailing list for members that is active on a daily basis lately with political issues. It's still news to me that Dingell is up for re-election.
