The advent of dedicated office space in 1908 changed some of
the House’s basic functions. Members now had individual rooms in which to meet
constituents, conduct business, and keep legislative files. Some of America’s most notable politicians used
the spaces that are still occupied by Representatives today. Follow these links
to see where Speakers of the House and presidential candidates have served
their constituents’ needs and legislative agendas during their House service.
Room histories and office assignments for other notable Members of the House of Representatives are available from the Office of the Clerk. For more information, please contact the House Curator at
