“Biggert, a moderate Republican in Congress for 12 years, is a model of independence and bipartisanship and is endorsed”…” She readily acknowledges that Republicans made mistakes when they were in charge while also strongly criticizing current House leadership for not working across the aisle. We think the Hinsdale resident is on target and deserves to take that message back to Congress.”
