Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) resigned from the House of Representatives last week. He has served in Congress since 1965–52 years. He wants his son, John Conyers III, to replace him in Congress.
Suppose that John Conyers III were to take over his father’s seat, and suppose that he served as long has his dad served. This father-son John Conyers team would serve 104 years in Congress. This is the ultimate argument for needing term limits.
