 But if you're doing this job right, it's not really about you. It's about the people you represent. And voting is important, but so is showing up at a fire station in Tooele. And so is the casework that a congressional office does to make sure that veterans are getting the benefits they're owed and that when the VA is hard for them to work with, someone works them through that process to make sure they get what they need. There's a lot to this job, and most of it isn't the sexy stuff you see on the news.
