"Healthcare benefits: An article in the Aug. 2 Section A about  
congressional healthcare benefits said that Rep. Steve Kagen (D-Wis.)  
"has refused to accept federal healthcare benefits, making him the  
only member of Congress to do without." Other members have also  
declined federal healthcare benefits; Kagen is the only member to have  
no health insurance coverage whatsoever. —"

46 Senators are eligible.  None participate.

looks like about 100 Reps are eligible.  None participate.

Only one member chose to opt out and he is NOT old enough for medicare.

So it *would* be a valid question to ANY elgible congressman.
