You can only vote on issues if they make a referendum, which usually doesn't happen for most issues.  What you can do is tell your representatives your opinion and they are supposed to listen to us.  I know on the immigration debate I wrote and called and everything and my representatives still disappointed.  But what you are supposed to do is tell your opinion and they are supposed to listen to the most people from their area, plus also use their own scruples/judgement.  Ummm... in theory.

Also, I said "voting citizens" becos I think that's the only ones they listen to, becos you can vote for them, or not.

And as for voting for those people, you can get an absentee ballot which I imagine you can just google it and look for a .gov website about it.

Oops, I missed that there were other posts about this legislation after all:
