I have no hope that it has helped- but my wife has called the White House 202-456-1111 several times and DOJ several times 202-456-1555.
A couple of interesting observations the WH operators SEEMED more interested when she started out- "I'm a Democrat" but also the last time that she called the operator said that they were asking everyone to call DOJ re this subject and proceeded to rattle off the number.
