Technically once you have been sworn in as a Congressperson you are able to keep the title for your entire life. It is accurate to refer to a former Congressman as "Congressman Foley" or "Congressman Weiner" regardless of the circumstances. Similarly, once they receive a promotion, they can accurately be referred to by that title. Once they have become a committee chairperson, you can refer to the person as "Chairman/Chairwoman" 20 years later. This continues up the chain..."President Carter..." etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, Im a peanut butter and chocolate guy (moreso chocolate), so Im still demanding they bring that back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 If people have a minute, please help! One of our local teachers is in a Pepsi contest to win $10,000 for her class to put a library in. Vote at this link and text 106604 to 73774. Elston is currently in 17th place, and the top 15 get funded, so your vote would help a ton! This is a great teacher, who really wants to do right by kids in a school with about an 80% poverty rate. http://www.refresheverything.com/booksforelston Thanks guys.
