1. The Department of Commerce [mailto]; VeriSign's contract to operate .com and .org was originally with them.
2. The Federal Communications Commission [fcc.gov], which oversees telecommunications.
3. The Senate Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Communications [senate.gov]; contact the committee itself [senate.gov], the chairman [senate.gov], the ranking member [senate.gov], and any of the other members you'd like.
4. The House Subcommittee on Telecommunications and the Internet [house.gov], including the committee itself [house.gov], the chairman [house.gov], the vice-chairman [house.gov], and the ranking member [house.gov]. Plus any of the other members you feel like contacting.
5. The Federal Trade Commission [ftc.gov], which hears consumer complaints.
6. Your U.S. Representative [house.gov]
7. Your Senators [senate.gov]
8. Your Governor [firstgov.gov]
9. Your State Legislators [ncsl.org]
10. ICANN's wildcard comment address [mailto]
11. Finally, complain to the media. If they get enough letters on a topic, they'll run stories. Try the New York Times [mailto], the Washington Post [mailto], the Washington Times [mailto], the Los Angeles Times [latimes.com], USA Today [usatoday.com], the Wall Street Journal [mailto], CNN [cnn.com], Fox News [foxnews.com], CBS News [cbsnews.com], ABC News [go.com], NBC News and MSNBC [msnbc.com].
