Minnesota Legislature
Best seat in the House
By HPIS Staff
Do you know which current members have sat next to each other the longest on the House Floor? Or which member always requests a seat in the back row?
Seats on the House Floor are assigned and subject to change each biennium, but a few members have staked out one particular spot and remained there for decades.
These coveted chairs come into play especially during this time of year when members spend a lot more time in the House Chamber debating bills. And as this video explains, sometimes it’s who you sit by and not where you sit that makes it the best seat in the House.
