Roskam, GOP must work with president

Posted February 28, 2013 4:00 am

My congressman, Peter Roskam, has failed miserably in his job representing the Illinois 6th Congressional District. I thought when you go to Congress and represent a district, you are supposed to represent the entire district. I would like to name one vote he has placed against party line. It’s bad enough they take home a full-time wage in a part-time job.

When is he going to start working with the president instead of complaining about him constantly? I thought they were supposed to try to compromise and work for the American people. I just heard him today blaming the president for the sequester when he knows darn well it was voted on by both parties and it’s his party that his not coming up with solutions. Please, I ask, work with the president. He is not the enemy!
