Under Trump 2.0, members of Congress are leaving office in numbers that haven’t been seen in nearly a hundred years.
An NBC News analysis of historical data from the Brookings Institution’s Vital Statistics on Congress found that 60 representatives and senators will not seek reelection this year.
Broken down, 51 House members and nine senators are either retiring from political life or seeking another office. This figure does not include members of Congress who have died or resigned, such as Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
