Gawd I hope you're not talking about Judy Biggert. She's completely WORTHLESS. (Yes, she's my Rep. I can't stand her.)
She's my rep too and I have to say that she cares about the district first. She is in the district every weekend while many Congressmen stay in Washington or in Barney Frank's case, jets off with his boyfriend to the Bahamas.
While working with Judy Biggert in 04-06 we got a lot accomplished for the district. Judy isn't afraid of townhalls, she is open to meeting one on one with constituents.
Judy did a lot for me, she called me from DC on the day of my mother's funeral before she had to vote on some bill. That meant more to me than building roads, rebuilding schools, ect... Yes, it is personal but I think it shows her character.
And I can guarantee she is not part of the combine if you want the reasons why I can tell you in a FReepmail because I don't want to disclose private congressional work on an open forum.
Judy has a phenomenal staff and a tough as nails Chief of Staff.
And she went out of her way to try and get Brady elected by having multiple fundraisers at her home in Hindsdale with Bill Brady.
It was an honor to work with her and although we don't agree on every issue I rather have Judy represent me than who my dad has........ Bobby Rush.
