Question

Congress Convenes

Answer 1

It made congress less effective so that in 2009 the rules were amended to repeal a limit  on the number of terms that any member can chair any House committee.

Explanation:

In 2009, many changes were made in the amendments which increased the time period on which a member can serve the house committee to 60 days from 30 days as they thought that limiting the days made congress weak and hence they extended it to 60 days.  

The membership term limits were also removed from the rule and the financial committee was allowed to prepare six subcommittees.  It stated that the committees are to study, make findings, investigate, develop recommendations, and make public hearings.
