Less than 6 years, since there’s a GOP majority and the GOP imposes a 6 year limit of chairs. And since they introduced that (late 90s, Gingrich era?) they’ve fallen into complete uselessness. So I’m not convinced that’s an answer.




Six years per leadership position? Or six years into elected office, while also holding a leadership position?

Also, where are you getting these numbers?


6 years as a committee chair, then the GOP party leadership picks another chair.
