A Congressional GOFER is a person who is employed to run errands for members of Congress. The term 'GOFER' comes from the phrase 'go for, ' meaning to fetch or retrieve something. In this case, the GOFER is responsible for running errands such as delivering documents, picking up supplies, and other tasks that require leaving the office. The job title of a Congressional GOFER is often shortened to 'PAGE, ' which is the four-letter answer to the crossword puzzle.
