 * Political party**- Independent.


 * State**: Missouri.

The Congressman that I agree with the most is Russ Carhahan. (http://www.carnahan.house.gov/)


 * Economy**- The economy is horrible right now. The taxes are really hurting most people; I think if they can't pay the tax, they could pay it a little at a time or not pay at all. People have to worry on other things. We should really take care of this so people don't go into debt and they can get what they need. They have to worry about losing their job and/ or getting paid less.
 * Environment and Energy**-This is the most important one to me, only because I really care about the environment and people's safety. If there are gasses that go off in a work, what would they have to do to make sure that it's okay to go back in? They would have to pay for an inspection or something down that line, this brings me back to my first issue. Russ Carnahan wants to help the environment to find and implement alternative and renewable fuels that do not lead to global warming and provide for a strong economy, and i totally agree with him. I think everyone should try to help the environment.
 * Health and Safety**- Many people are suffering illness, injury, and on the path to death. You never know what's wrong with the person until they go to the doctor. They would have to pay for it, and that means that it would be getting into the environment.

Bill- The issue that we are doing is on environment and energy, we need a lot of help to find new ways to prevent pollution, and to not use as much fossil fuel as we do everyday. Trying to keep things out of the water, recycle, and GO GREEN! SB 21
