"After doing seven town halls over the past two months, I am convinced more than ever that voters want to know that their Congressional Representatives are accountable to them … not to big banks and lobbyists,” states Anderson. “Most of the Republicans I know and have known want the same things as the Democrats I know and have known. 

"While we obviously need to cut waste and improve government efficiency, we need to take care that middle America is not short-changed in the process.  We need policies that benefit the greatest number and those with greater needs, not just those with the biggest lobbying budgets.”
