Despite improvement, House staff turnover remains near decade-high levels

Caught Our Eye Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Monday, March 18, 2024

House staffer turnover is slowly improving, though it remains near decade-high levels.

2023 saw staff retention improve by 4% over the previous year, according to a LegiStorm analysis. But that's still tied for the third-worst turnover rate since at least 2001, the first full year of LegiStorm's salary data.

I have found LegiStorm essential for my job and quite surprising in its capabilities. For an arts presentation I needed to give on Capitol Hill, I was able to automatically download key arts staffers associated with all members of the Congressional Arts Caucus. I also able to find staff with "art" in their education backgrounds, so they got invited too. Definitely fun, and useful.

LegiStorm Pro is the best source out there today to keep track of the comings and goings of Hill staff. It is user-friendly and constantly updated.

We have found LegiStorm to be the ultimate tool in communicating with congressional offices, either individually or with a group. We have been able to reach out with messages to all chiefs of staff and legislative directors, or staff dedicated to specific areas. We believe that this ability was instrumental in passing two key pieces of legislation which were imperative to our members.

The data provided by LegiStorm stands out as the best Congressional data available. The accuracy and organization of LegiStorm's data has meant that I've been able to greatly speed up progress on my research. I have no hesitation in recommending LegiStorm to all types of researchers, journalists, lobbyists and other political professionals.
