I believe that most of them are attorneys.
Many people are writing there senator`s or representative`s to seek help for thinks like a social securety check has not bin recived or a veteran`s clam is held up. The representayive`s and the senator`s should be there for the people, seeing that they are suppost to represent the people.Things that they could do is to write people responsible for the problem and point it out so it will get double checked and taken in action.The mean resson why the members of the congress do casework, is because they are suppost to work for us by reppresenting us and if we have a problem that envolves the government. it`s there job to point it out and consider it in medings.David P
