How many Congressmen and Senators have off-shore bank accounts?

Should they be illegal if you are an elected official of the US Government?

I'm sure there are quite a few, from both Parties. To me, it seems unpatriotic but also wrong. The Bible is instructive sometimes: Matthew 6:21 "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

Mitt Romney has been criticized for having his money in several foreign accounts but he is not alone. Could this legislation be passed in the US Congress?

NASA wants to send humans to mars. If so, then "Off Shore" would be so quaint.
