Can some civics person tell me who actually writes the bills?

No email address required.
Special interest groups, corporations, and governmental agencies. The bills get sponsored by the politician or political party when the organization that wrote the bill pays enough to the re-election campaign, or provides services in other ways.

Theoretically a lobbyist could actually write a full bill and have a member of congress submit it, but in practice there would be a fair amount of revision and changes to it.

That entire subreddit is a cesspool. It's like a sewer that empties directly into a stagnant pond.
