Let's gather together:

  • 38 mayors
  • 24 health care professionals, including veterinarians, dieticians and pharmacists
  • Three organic farmers
  • Three ranchers
  • Three vintners
  • Two former pro athletes
  • Six scientists
  • Five accountants
  • four ministers
  • Four sheriffs

Throw in a mountain guide, an auto worker, coroner, shellfish specialist, tugboat captain, driving instructor, auctioneer, toll booth collector, cosmetics salesperson and iron worker. Fill out the roster with even more diverse occupations and you've just assembled the current 111th Congress.

Not an insurance professional among them.

A bit scary, considering the impact they have on insurance laws and regulations.
