Playbook notes that Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) is currently serving as acting White House chief of staff while he still holds his seat as a member of Congress.
Ben Williamson, his chief of staff, said that Meadows “is still transitioning, not collecting pay from the White House, and will be resigning his seat before the end of the month.”
A reminder of Article I, Section 6 of the U.S. Constitution: “No Senator or Representative shall, during the time for which he was elected, be appointed to any civil office under the authority of the United States.”
