According to a Gallup poll, 70 percent of Americans want elected officials to serve only a limited number of terms. Nevertheless, every two years American voters return, on average, more than 95 percent of incumbents to the U.S. House of Representatives. John Hibbing's book provides unique evidence of the problems that would result from congressional term limitations. The first scholar to analyze congressional careers using longitudinal data, Hibbing looks at how the career patterns of a typical House member have evolved over the last forty years. By showing that the gap between the legislative contributions of junior and senior members has grown in recent years, Hibbing contends that as members gain in seniority they become more knowledgeable, efficient, and valuable legislators. Thus he argues against congressional term limitations. Hibbing's findings illuminate other fundamental and surprising changes. House members now are as electorally secure early in their careers as they are late, and they are less likely to deviate from their previously established roll call voting pattern. Members acquire positions of authority (subcommittee chairs) more quickly than they used to, but these more rapid gains evaporate by the sixth or seventh term of service. Also, House members travel to their home districts less frequently than they did ten years ago. Congressional Careers is a fascinating portrait of the evolution of American legislators during their congressional service. It is the only study of congressional behavior that is both comprehensive and longitudinal -- valuable features in an era when congressional careerism is coming under acute public scrutiny.

Is congress corrupt? Fire Congress names the corrupt persons and tells you their crimes. A congressman gets elected and becomes a very wealthy congressman by “making very wise investments.” Of course, they have some help from K Street. K Street is where the lobbyists are. When congressmen are not receiving checks from lobbyists for their campaign funds, they are going to work for lobbying rms at the end of their careers—that is if the congressmen are not in prison. Then, of course, there are all of the earmarks they are no longer supposed to have! Literally billions of dollars of earmarks are tacked onto bills, some frivolous, for stuff that would otherwise never get passed, just to garner votes from their own constituency.

Questions about the characteristics of Members of Congress, including their age, education, previous occupations, and other descriptors, are of ongoing interest to Members, congressional staff, and constituents. Some of these questions may be asked in the context of representation, in efforts to evaluate the extent to which Members of Congress reflect their constituencies and the nation at large. In other instances, questions arise about how the characteristics of Members have changed over time, which may speak in part to the history of Congress. This book provides profiles of Senators and Representatives in selected Congresses since 1945, with a focus on service tenure and patterns of member service.
