Digging back further, there’s an even older case: Rep. Gladys Noon Spellman collapsed at a shopping center in 1980, fell into a coma, and remained in office until Congress declared the seat vacant in early 1981 — marking the only time a seat was vacated for medical reasons .

The Granger case highlights major issues: no forced medical disclosure, no age limits, and no automatic removal for health incapacity.

Ain't makin this shit up Rep. Kay Granger (R‑TX, 81) was found living in a senior care facility with memory support, yet remained in office and kept voting staff on the payroll, after missing every House vote since July 24, 2024 despite holding key appropriations responsibilities .

Let’s be real: If voters don’t mind 85 yr old politicians who’s more focused on PAC money than public service, why would Congress lift a finger to change that? The gravy train is still rolling and nobody’s blocking the tracks.

The problem is not with congress but the voters , no term limits is a feature not a bud in a failed system , if the voters won't mind it , why would congress?

And the Supreme Court also.

Couple of old guys wanna enact laws to can old guys , ambitious ? Aspiring ? Yes , will that happen ? No .lol
