• Members of the House of Representatives continue to struggle with staff turnover even after efforts to increase pay and approving a measure that allowed staffers to form unions last year.
• According to LegiStorm, which tracks congressional staff rosters and salaries, 2022 had the second worst turnover rate since at least 2001, which is when the website started tracking this data.
• Retention improved by about 8% in 2022 from 2021, which was the House’s worst in decades. In 2021, 55% more House staff members left their jobs than in the preceding year amid the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and the coronavirus pandemic.
