I added 'religion' to this infobox for a reason. Religion is one of the categories included in the box's of senators, so it makes sense to have it here as well. It goes along well with the rest of the basic biographical info, such as date of birth and place of birth, that are found on Congress's website. |

: Consistency across political articles is nice. The relevance of religion to a particular politician is debatable. I have made it an optional variable since it looks like 90% of usage omits that var. -- [[User:Dgies|Dgies]] 07:11, 14 November 2006 (UTC) |

==Current problem with Representatives-Elect== |

There was not a good way to indicate the Representatives-Elect without making a false statement, so I have added a footnotes section at the bottom. This will give the option to indicate the next in line. I couldn't figure out how to remove the middle line, so I put the footnote on the right side.

new attribute
I've added a width attribute for the image. The previous version had the width hard-wired to 160px. If an image is smaller than this, it will be expanded to fit, causing a reduction in picture quality. The previous value is now the default, so current use should be unaffected. -- stubblyhead | T/c 20:35, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
