On Tuesday night, Kentucky voters overwhelmingly nominated a 23-term House incumbent, who controls a pot of more than $80 billion in federal funds, to another term \u2014 that would end when he\u2019s 91.<\/p>\n

Idaho voters nominated a powerful 14-term incumbent, who oversees funding for national parks and other Interior Department issues, to a term that will end when he is 78 years old. And, finally, more than two-thirds of Idaho voters nominated to the Senate the incumbent chair of the Committee on Foreign Relations, essentially granting him another six-year term that would end when he\u2019s 89.<\/p>\n

All Democrats? Think again. Those elderly incumbents are Republicans: Reps. Hal Rogers of Kentucky and Idaho\u2019s Rep. Mike Simpson and Sen. Jim Risch.<\/p>\n

While Democrats have been engaged in a more bitter generational fight and received more media attention for it \u2014 take, for example, former President Joe Biden<\/u><\/span>, former Sen. Dianne Feinstein and D.C. delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton<\/u><\/span> \u2014 some Republicans say their party, <\/b>which is led by soon-to-be 80-year-old Donald Trump, the oldest president to be inaugurated, has its own \u201cage problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maryland Rep. Andy Harris, 69, chair of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, said the House GOP needs to impose more stringent term limits as part of a generational change to prevent lawmakers from taking up top committee posts for a decade or more.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, it\u2019s a problem, and we deal with it better than the Democrats, but not perfectly,\u201d said Harris, who is in his eighth term in Congress yet still has 10 more senior Republicans ahead of him on the House Appropriations Committee.<\/p>\n

House Republicans impose a strict six-year limit on lawmakers serving as chairs or as ranking members when their party\u2019s in the minority. Harris believes the term limit rule is too loose, allowing some members to jump from leading one committee to another. Reps. Michael McCaul of Texas and Virginia Foxx of North Carolina have chaired two committees each in the last 15 years. Democrats, on the other hand, place no limit on the terms atop the legislative committees, which has long irked the younger generation in their caucus as critical panels like Appropriations, Financial Services and Ways and Means are helmed by Democrats over the age of 75.<\/p>\n

Rogers \u2014 who at 88 years old is the oldest non-retiring member of Congress \u2014 hit his six-year term limit almost a decade ago chairing the full House Appropriations Committee, but he has since used his seniority to jump from overseeing one subcommittee to another.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re limited to six years, but then you can go to another subcommittee. You can go to an infinite number of subcommittees. I think that is a problem,\u201d Harris said.<\/p>\n

But for other Republicans, the term limit rule is enough to keep the top the committee post turning over new leaders and promoting junior members upward \u2014 at least in comparison to the Democrats.<\/p>\n

One House Republican, who was granted anonymity to speak frankly, told NOTUS that occasionally, \u201cyou\u2019ll hear people talk about, \u2018Oh, I got to get a waiver\u2019\u201d in order to get around the term limit. But overall, the lawmaker said, \u201cI haven\u2019t seen a lot of angst around people just like camping on those leadership positions.\u201d<\/p>\n

A second House Republican, who also asked for anonymity, joked: \u201cI\u2019d hate to be a Democrat. \u2026 You gotta be here for decades<\/i> to get a gavel. It\u2019s crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of the 17 House lawmakers who are 80 or older, 13 are Democrats. One of them, Rep. Maxine Waters, who is 87 and is running for reelection in California, is on track to become the oldest chair in the history of the House Financial Services Committee. When asked who she saw as her likely successor at a Semafor discussion panel<\/u><\/span> on Wednesday, she said, \u201cI don\u2019t think we should talk about whether or not we should give up the mantle. \u2026 I\u2019m not moving.\u201d<\/p>\n

But of the remaining Democratic octogenarians, six have already announced they will not run for reelection, and three others might lose their seats due to eventual redistricting.<\/p>\n

In the Senate, Republicans are clearly the older party. Three of the four oldest senators are Republicans, including Risch and Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley, who will turn 93 in September. Of 37 senators who are 70 or older, 21 are Republicans. They say running for reelection is a personal decision between them and their voters.<\/p>\n

\u201cVery individual to everyone,\u201d Risch said Thursday, touting his Tuesday nomination with 67% support from voters in every county. \u201cThey have appreciated the steady hand that I\u2019ve had over the time that I\u2019ve been in there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, all four House Republican octogenarians \u2014 Rogers, Foxx, Rep. John Carter of Texas and Rep. Jim Baird of Indiana \u2014 are running for another term.<\/p>\n

There are 35 House Republicans who are at least 70 years old, including five of the six most senior GOP appropriators. Only a dozen House Republicans are 39 years old or younger.<\/p>\n

\u201cI definitely think that we ought to make sure that the party is open and welcoming to young people. Candidly, it has been very much for me. I\u2019m the youngest Republican at the conference, and I haven\u2019t had, in my opinion, any issues with my colleagues,\u201d 32-year-old Republican Rep. Brandon Gill of Texas told NOTUS<\/p>\n

Republican Rep. Pat Harrigan, 38, of North Carolina told NOTUS that generational change is already underway.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re seeing that the next generation is stepping up to lead and saying, \u2018Hey, we don\u2019t necessarily love all the things that the former generation has chosen to do and hasn\u2019t necessarily set our generation up for success,\u2019\u201d Harrigan said.<\/p>\n

Harrigan added: \u201cWe have $40 trillion worth of sovereign debt that the last generation used to generate a significant amount of personal wealth for themselves when they figured out how to make themselves money.\u201d<\/p>\n

Generational dynamics have come into play in some Republican primaries. California Reps. Young Kim, 63, and Ken Calvert, 72, are two incumbents duking it out in a somewhat age-related battle for a recently redistricted seat. Kim has released attack ads targeting Calvert for his age and tenure, posting on X<\/u><\/span> that \u201cfor over 34 years, Ken Calvert has built a RINO [Republican in name only] record.\u201d<\/p>\n

Voters, Kim told NOTUS, \u201care looking for new leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne thing that I hear over and over is that, \u2018Oh, he\u2019s the one who\u2019s been in Congress for more than three decades,\u2019\u201d Kim continued. \u201cThat\u2019s what people are saying: 34 years in Congress is a long time, and I\u2019ve been in Congress just three terms.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rep. Kat Cammack of Florida, 38, admitted that the younger House Republicans are \u201calways thinking about\u201d the age dynamics. But, she said, \u201cwe\u2019re really changing how we message. We\u2019re helping leadership change how they message, working to find ways to reach people where they\u2019re at.\u201d<\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t limited to messaging<\/i> and thinking, <\/i>Cammack said. It\u2019s about finding policies that resonate with young people, too.<\/p>\n

Cammack referenced her bill<\/u><\/span> called The Nest Act, a tax-free savings account for first-time homebuyers, and noted she\u2019s \u201ca new mom with a nine-month-old,\u201d and pushed for new investment accounts for citizens under 18 years old called \u201cTrump Accounts.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I talk to my friends from college and high school, many of them have not been able to purchase their first home,\u201d Cammack said. \u201cSo we\u2019re always looking at ways that we can help millennials and Gen Zs achieve their version of the American dream.\u201d<\/p>\n

Republican Rep. Brian Jack, 38, of Georgia has been in Congress for about a year and a half. As a freshman, he\u2019s already a subcommittee chair, deputy chair for the National Republican Congressional Committee, and sits on the powerful House Republican Steering Committee, where he helped over a quarter of House Republicans\u2019 2025 freshman class gain spots on the three most coveted House committees<\/u><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Granted, Jack\u2019s fast rise in the House<\/u><\/span> may have something to do with his close ties to President Donald Trump, having worked as White House political director during the first Trump administration and then as a senior adviser in Trump\u2019s 2024 campaign.<\/p>\n

He says Republican leaders understand they need to appeal to younger voters with younger candidates, explaining why they\u2019ve promoted him into junior leadership posts so quickly.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been given a chance to step into a leadership role, and it helps me when I recruit candidates.\u201d Jack told NOTUS. \u201cI\u2019m getting to do that as a freshman. I\u2019m not having to wait.\u201d<\/p>\n
