For fun, I decided to get a list together of all the non-republican congressmen/women, narrow the list down to my favorite 20, and then rank them. Here’s what I came up with.

    1. Conyers Jr., John, Michigan, 14th
    2. Waxman, Henry, California, 30th
    3. Kucinich, Dennis J., Ohio, 10th
    4. McKinney, Cynthia, Georgia, 4th
    5. Murtha, John, Pennsylvania, 12th

    6. DeFazio, Peter, Oregon, 4th
    7. Brown, Sherrod, Ohio, 13th
    8. Rangel, Charles B., New York, 15th.
    9. Frank, Barney, Massachusetts, 4th
    10. Sanders, Bernie, Vermont, At Large

    11. Cummings, Elijah, Maryland, 7th
    12. Waters, Maxine, California, 35th
    13. Cardin, Benjamin L., Maryland, 3rd
    14. Jackson Lee, Sheila, Texas, 18th
    15. Inslee, Jay, Washington, 1st

    16. Weiner, Anthony D., New York, 9th
    17. Lewis, John, Georgia, 5th
    18. Jones, Stephanie Tubbs, Ohio, 11th
    19. Lee, Barbara, California, 9th
    20. DeLauro, Rosa L., Connecticut, 3rd

Honorable Mention:
Nadler, Jerrold, New York, 8th
Jackson Jr., Jesse L., Illinois, 2nd

Note: I’m sure there are great reps missing from this list. But I don’t know everybody in congress. Feel free to start with

my list, rearrange, add, subtract, etc. and come up with your own list. Remember, this is a list of YOUR favorites.
