You can make this list smaller by viewing only the lower chamber or only the upper chamber.
This list of legislators is accurate as of February 2011. Click on a member's name to learn more about him or her.
Note that the "education" column below occasionally has errors. I wrote a program that attempted to read each legislator's educational history and code it into one of a few categories. The program worked well, but with occasional errors. You can see the full educational history for each legislator by clicking on his/her name.
