Congress to work a "five day" week...
What a concept.

In reality, though, I think it's important for elected officials to spend some time in their districts -- and some would argue that they spend a lot of time doing speaches, etc. as part of their jobs.
However, I do think there is a lot of time that they could be working, and aren't. Check the number of roll call votes that your Senator or Representative attends and the number of trips he/she takes. It varies widely.
