Summary

Twilio has launched the Voices for Democracy initiative to connect people directly to their elected officials through code. The platform, powered by developers, allows citizens to make calls and express their concerns, with 100 million calls being the goal. Developers such as Ian Webster have already made significant contributions to this effort, including a better way to call Congress. The initiative aims to use technology to connect people, not divide them, in order to build a better society.
