Tribune endorses Roskam
In the last couple of years, Rep. Peter Roskam of Wheaton has become one of the more influential Republicans in Illinois and on Capitol Hill. We had some skepticism about him when he first ran for Congress, but he has focused on fundamental economic issues and gained stature as a member of the Ways and Means Committee and chief deputy whip. He was recently named "most up-and-coming member of Congress" by The Hill.
