For freshman members of Congress like Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand, it's a difficult balancing act between getting work done in Washington and raising money for an upcoming re-election battle. RNN's Karen DePodwin spent time with Gillibrand in the 20th District and DC.

It was awesome when she dominated John Sweeney for the 20th distict and it'll be even sweeter when she Sandy Treadwell and I don't have to see his BS commercials for 2 years.
She has this Iraq Vets vote.

Gillibrand is amazing. The idea that she publishes her schedule and meets regularly with her constituents is amazing. She does these monthly Congress on Your Corner events at local supermarkets and coffee shops. It's groundbreaking.

Nice job. I feel that Gillibrand is doing a great job. her web page is informative and encourages participation. Coming from upstate NY, it is important for someone to be in Congress who understands the problems in this area.
