It met in Washington, D.C., from January 3, 1999, to January 3, 2001, during the last two years of Bill Clinton's presidency. The apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives was based on the 1990 United States census. Both chambers maintained a Republican majority. This is the most recent Congress with Republican senators from the states of Delaware (William Roth), Michigan (Spencer Abraham) and Washington (Slade Gorton), all of whom lost re-election in 2000. It was the first Congress where Baby boomers comprised the majority of the House of Representatives.Winograd Morley Hais Michael January 5, 2015 Boomer Dominance Means More of the Same in the 114th Congress Brookings Institution https://www.brookings.edu/articles/boomer-dominance-means-more-of-the-same-in-the-114th-congress/ September 12, 2025 2 Major events 1999 in the United States 2000 in the United States 2001 in the United States January 7, 1999 – February 12, 1999: Impeachment trial of Bill Clinton March 24, 1999 – June 10, 1999: NATO bombing of Yugoslavia March 29, 1999: Dow Jones Industrial Average ended above 10,000 for the first time.
