Every day, millions of Americans waste precious time, money and energy resources stuck in traffic, waiting for a bus running behind schedule, delayed on an airport tarmac or crammed into an overcrowded subway. The I’m Stuck app empowers citizens to tell their Member of Congress that it is time to reinvest in America.

The policies we put in place, or the lack of a coherent long-term infrastructure plan, directly impacts the daily experience of Americans trying to get around their communities. This app gives commuters and passengers an avenue to voice their frustrations to Congress. This innovative, real time communications tool is a new method of grassroots advocacy. Members of Congress will hear daily from their constituents about how a lack of a transportation and infrastructure funding is keeping America stuck in gridlock. Whether your local highway doesn’t have enough lanes to handle all the traffic or your local airport doesn't have the capacity to deal with all of the flights, this is the app to ensure your voice will be heard. With the I’m Stuck app, you can immediately contact your U.S. Representative or Senator from your car, in the airport, on public transit, or anywhere else.

Awesome idea!!

I believe that far too many people don't realize that their voice can be heard through correspondence to their congress person. This app is a great tool. The only problem is that since most people don't realize this avenue, they also don't know whom their congress person is. It would be great if the app, based on residential input, populated the federal, state and local representation. Thanks and God Bless America!!


Help!

First time I tried to use this it asked me to re-enter the name of my State. I don't think I that changing Nevada to another spelling will help? Will it automatically fill in congress persons names? This is a great idea if it can be used. I referred it to 10 friends.


Good idea, bad performance

This is a good idea, but being asked something 6 times and not accepting my response is bad!!! ESJT.


Not as promised

I was looking forward to writing a note to my congressperson using this app and it doesn't let me send anything. I thought it would already have the email address of the recipient for me but it doesn't and it doesn't allow me to type one in. Not worth the time I put into it.


Great app

Easy to report traffic issues to my congressperson. Hopefully, this will lead to better roads and more mass transit funding!


So hopeful

I haven't used it yet, and I hope the issues listed in other reviews get resolved quickly. But I'm giving this app 5 stars just for the IDEA of it. I write my lawmakers occasionally, but worry that my efforts are futile. This app gives me hope that it may actually make a difference. Not only should there be more funding for mass transit, there should be strong oversight to ensure that we are getting our money's worth.


Disgusting level of incompetence.
Steve4031

Can't get the app to accept my state name. Get rid of the security code crap. Disgusting that you would subject people to such insane stupidity.


Not bad
Morbidpete

Lets see if this makes a difference in the long term. Same issue with the state. But my local reps showed regardless of the warning about my state spelling. So not a big deal


App stuck lol

Downloaded it on iPhone 5 and loops through states data initializing repeatedly... Needs some attention.
