How long is the term for a US Senator?

2 years
4 years
6 years
8 years

The correct answer is: 6 years

The term for a US Senator is 6 years. Option A, 2 years, is the length of a term for a US Representative in the House of Representatives. Option B, 4 years, is the term length for the President of the United States. Option D, 8 years, is the maximum number of years a person can serve as President, but does not apply to US Senators. The term length for a US Senator is written in the US Constitution as a way to stagger elections and ensure stability and continuity in the Senate. Every two years, one-third of the Senate stands for election. This allows for experienced Senators to remain in office while still giving voters the opportunity to have a say in who represents them.
