Majority Believes Congress Members Don't Care What They Think
The little people are there to be told how to live, not to have their views represented
Voters remain convinced that Congress doesn't care what they think, and that includes the representative from their home district.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 16% of Likely U.S. Voters believe most members of Congress care what their constituents think. Sixty-four percent (64%) feel they don't care what their voters think. Twenty percent (20%) are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Absolutely false!
They care very much about what you think. On a certain Tuesday in November.
Other than that, forget it.
