The wealthiest one-third of lawmakers were largely immune from the Great
 Recession, taking the fewest financial hits and watching their 
investments quickly recover and rise to new heights. But more than 20 
percent of the members of the current Congress — 121 lawmakers — 
appeared to be worse off in 2010 than they had been six years earlier, 
and 24 saw their reported wealth slide into negative territory.<br>
<br>
Those findings emerge from an ongoing examination of congressional 
finances by The Washington Post, which analyzed thousands of financial 
disclosure forms and public records for all members 
of Congress.
