Nice notion, Chris1962, but representa
tives get home on average a few days every 4 months. The time they spend home is mostly meeting with big donors at fundraiser
s.
Congress was designed when representa
tives' only transporta
tion back home took weeks on horseback. That's become moot with air travel, but again, once politician
s get elected to Congress, they move to Washington (Virginia, Maryland) and few ever look back. Even if they lose their seats, most remain in the area and take jobs lobbying or in appointed positions.
