Blog about YOUR Congressperson

For this weekend, I want you to blog about either the Representative that represents you, where you live. You see, although the state we live in has many representatives, each one is assigned to represent a smaller portion of that state called a district. What you need to do first is find out who represents your district:
1) Go the the zip code lookup page over at USPS to find out your 9 digit zip code (like 20910-1123).
2) Once you have your zip code, head over to the Contact your Representative page at House.gov. Enter your state and zip there, and it will forward you to the House Representative that represents your district.

Now you know who your Rep is! Your job for the assignment is to blog about TWO ACTIONS your representative made in the last week. Did they vote some way on a particular bill this week? Did they attend a fundraiser event? Were they visiting a school making a speech? Feel free to look to see if they twitter or blog themselves, but every Rep most likely will have at least a News section on their own webpage. Good luck everyone.

PS. And if you didn't finish in class on Friday, you should also finish up the Executive Department worksheet you received in the computer lab.
