1-800-GENOCIDE

The Genocide Intervention Network has created the first-ever anti-genocide hotline that connects constituents directly with their elected officials, for free. You don’t need to know your officials’ names, numbers, or even what to say. The hotline does the work.

  • Enter your zip code.
  • You’ll be asked whether you want to talk to your governor (1), senator (2), representative (3), or the White House (4).
  • The hotline gives ‘talking points’ related to current legislation and GI-Net campaigns.
  • When you’re connected, just give your name and address and ask your official to take action that you heard about in the ‘talking points.’
  • Make the call today!
