Private-sector paydays threaten Mike Johnson's House majority

21. Thanks for the update and for confirming that the Axios article contained errors.

This is from the Axis article: "At least five House lawmakers quit Congress early in the last two years to pursue private-sector paychecks. Another four resigned early for other reasons, two died in office and one was expelled."

As your post indicates, during the past two years, four members died in office, not two. And only three left "to pursue private-sector paychecks". And while Gaetz resigned during the 118th Congress, Stefanik and Waltz, are not resigning after the start of the 119th Congress and all three left not for private sector positions, but to pursue portions in the Trump administration, not in the private sector.

Thusly corrected, the Axios article should have said: "At least five Three House lawmakers quit Congress early the last two years to pursue private-sector paychecks. At least another five resigned early for other reasons, two four died in office and one was expelled."
