Settle down dude. Cardin has been in politics since '67. Blumenauer since '73. Napolitano since '92 (She's 87!), Eshoo since '93. Kilmer is the spring chicken at 50 and he's been in politics since '05.

Unless you are a political junkie, you shouldn't know all the House members. Generally, you should know "some" of the Senate. I only know Ben Cardin because I grew up in Baltimore. I know of John Sarbanes because of his Dad (was a Senator). Ken Buck has in the media recently. The other names just by "passing". Blumenauer, Cardenas, Carper, Kildee, Napolitano.

Maintaining 2 places of living is a reasonable argument. Instead of raising their pay, they should get housing / travel stipends.

Gotta admit that I hate nearly all of Ken Buck's political positions, but admire the dude. This weird thing where we call people by titles. Even worse when they keep it for years after position / office. Can't imagine being at work and being like, "CEO Matt, what's your take on this?". Asian countries (at least Korea) do that. It's really weird.

@MR-pr8tp No one likes how the sausage is made.

Geez, John Sarbanes is 61. His Dad and "Babs" Mikulski were stalwarts in Maryland politics.

End the gerrymandering! Congress worked better when there were more competitive races. Way more centrists were elected and everyone had to compromise.
