Ex-Rep. Grayson seen talking with former colleagues on House floor
http://washingtonscene.thehill.com/in-the-know/36-news/11845-judy-kurtz

He’s baaaaack! An ITK spy spotted former Florida congressman Alan Grayson on the House floor Wednesday afternoon.

The Democrat, who is eyeing another congressional run, was seen chatting with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) and Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.).

Grayson, who lost his reelection bid last year, attracted headlines during the health reform debate in the last Congress when he said that the healthcare plan the Republicans had in mind was for sick people to “die quickly.”

(snip)
Former House members -- as long as they are not lobbyists -- are allowed on the House floor.

1. It's good news. Last week he announced he was going
to the Hill and was gathering feedback to take with him. I took him up on it, and hope everyone who gets his emails did, too.


"Next week, I’m going to Washington, DC, and I will visit the Floor of the House. And since I will be seeing the high and mighty, I would like to know whether there is anything that you want me to tell them. If so, click here."

(It's in his newsletter on Newt)

2. I am a monthly supporter of his campaign, and I don't live in Fla.
