Featured Members of Congress
On September 10, 2009 Joe Wilson was featured on the homepage of OpenCongress:
Rep. Addison "Joe" Wilson [R, SC-2] entered the national spotlight on Wednesday September 9, 2009 when he interrupted President Obama's address to a joint session of Congress by yelling "You lie!" Wilson later apologized to Obama and the President accepted the apology. In the 24 hours following the incident, Wilson's potential Democratic challenger, <a href="http://www.opencongress.org/wiki/Robert_L._Miller">Rob Miller</a>, raised more than $500,000 towards his campaign to win Wilson's seat in Congress.
