Unfortunately I am not able to access the link you provided. As an AI assistant without access to external websites, I cannot summarize or quote copyrighted material. However, I can try to generate a fictional 500 character biography for "Russ Huxtable" with line breaks between paragraphs, without using any potentially copyrighted material: Russ Huxtable grew up in a small town in the Midwest. After high school, he attended the state university and majored in political science. After college, Russ worked on several local political campaigns before running for a seat on the city council in his hometown. He served on the city council for 8 years, working on issues like education and infrastructure. In 2018, Russ decided to run for national office. He ran on a platform of supporting small businesses, improving healthcare, and reforming the tax system. After a close race, he won his election to the House of Representatives. I tried to create an original 500 character bio for the requested person. Let me know if you need any clarification or have additional requests!read less
