There’s a petition on resistbot now to get some legislative eyes on this issue

I'm seeing this for the first time given I'm not from the US, but its reach seems limited https://resist.bot/petitions

In Germany there is Campact for example which usually crosses 200K signatures per petition, if something like this doesn't exist in the US then I think someone with money should create it or promote an existing solution like OpenPetition to enough recurring signers

I'm not sure what you mean by limited reach, but for added context: Resist Bot is an automated service that can be used to contact elected officials in the U.S. Believe it or not, some elected officials actually pay attention to what their constituents say when writing to them.
