This is coercion, not representation

Regarding the health care bill, Speaker Nancy Pelosi famously said, “We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it. What kind of governing is this? Passing legislation that nobody understands, blindsiding the public with bills that, upon passage, become terribly unpopular. Almost two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the health care bill, and the number is growing the more we learn about the bill.

This is not representation, this is coercion. Please, let's bring representation back to Washington by electing officials like U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam, who actually listen to the concerns of the people.
