If this is something you want you should definitely write to your local Congress people. And if they won't listen vote for someone else.

You somehow failed to read this part.

I'm not American

Do you live in a totalitarian state? Do you not get to vote for your government officials? Doesn't matter if you're American or not, right to repair and consumer rights isn't solely an American issue.

No, you're right. It was a bit dismissive of me.

Though rather than convincing just my local elected officials I'd rather also convince others out there, whom might become an additional voice for those local elected officials to hear.
