No Age Limits in Congress | Charleston News
Congress has no age cap—just minimums: 25 for the House, 30 for the Senate. The Founders trusted voters to decide who’s fit to serve, not lawmakers’ age. No term limits either, so members can run for decades if re-elected. When a seat opens, House vacancies trigger special elections; Senate vacancies let governors appoint interim fillers. Want to add an age limit? Tough—requires a constitutional amendment, needing 2/3 of both chambers and 3/4 of states. Ultimately, voters hold the power.
