How many Democrats, Republicans, and Independents are there in the House of Representatives?

Answer 1

All of them, actually.

232 Republicans
202 Democrats
1 Independent

Answer 2

At last count
207 Democrats
233 Republican
1 Independent

The democrats average over 13 years in office with 34 over 20 years, the reps just over 10 years average and 26 with over 20 years.

And therein lies the problem in America today, a congress comprised of career politicians who only represent themselves and their campaign BIG DOLLAR contributors. You and I are NOT represented.

To correct this issue I propose the following:
1) cut congress pay in half
2) cut staff in half
3) eliminate their healthcare and replace it with what the average american has, say kaiser or united with them paying for family and part of their own plus a large deductible
4) publicly fund ALL elections, each qualified candidate gets the exact same amount of money.
5) require the media to give equal type of air time to each, so if they cover a senator for an article they have to do the exact same amount of inches from each qualified candidate. Free speech has a cost so why should not the media pay their share.
6) install a ONE term limit, pick the number of years, but that is it, do your time then leave, no elections other than the very first one.
7) Eliminate their retirement or reduce it to something that looks more like what we have.

Get rid of career politicians and Americans will once again be represented by the legislature.
