Keep calling the Senate.
In the meantime, remember this: the Republican Congress is about to either pass the most unpopular piece of legislation ever to pass Congress (I shit you not) or fall on its face failing to do so.

There has never been a better time to get involved in Democratic politics. There will probably never be a better time to get involved in Democratic politics. I have a friend who wants to eventually hold local office. He was thinking he’d want to wait a few years (he’s in his early 30s) until he’d established himself more, but now he thinks he has do to it in the next few years. Why? He has his eye on a seat that’s a toss-up, or maybe leans R, under normal circumstances but will probably go to a Democrat in the next race because of the national political climate.
Every crisis is an opportunity. We’re in the middle of a terrible national crisis, really of several national crises at once. It would have better to avert these crises, but if we can’t, we’ve got to take advantage of the opportunities they present.

I’m not in a place in my life where I can do much, but when I was, I got very involved in two local Congressional races and two State Senate races, and I had a great time doing it.
