KNX In Depth's Charles Feldman and Brian Ping discuss whether there should be a maximum age limit on lawmakers. Louis DeSipio is a political science professor at UC Irvine. “You know the Constitution does set some limits on who we can elect. We can’t elect members to the House of Representatives younger than 25 or members of the Senate younger than 30, so it wouldn’t be unreasonable, I think, to have a comparable limit on the other end,” says DeSipio.
