About Me
Ever cognizant of his roots, Upton has brought his small-town, Midwestern values to bear in Washington and consequently has become one of the most active members of Congress working to ensure our nation is on a path toward a smaller, more efficient, more effective federal government.
Fred prides himself on staying closely connected with his constituents. He personally visits at least one school a week to hear the concerns of students and administrators and has been a tireless advocate for Southwest Michigan's institutions of higher learning. In addition, Fred personally reads the more than 1000 legislative letters that he receives each week and signs every response.
