Utah congressman sleeps in his office

I wouldn't mind some plans to create optional dorms for all of our congressmen, that combine with their offices perhaps.

Exactly as the article says, it would allow them more time to communicate with their residents/do other things.

Also, if you gave them living quarters then you wouldn't need their wages to be so high because you wouldn't need to cover cost-of-living expenses near the capitol

Just make flats in the DC projects available to them, at normal rent.
Problem solved.
