Dear Politico, Liz Cheney is 55, Scott Perry is 60. Best, Retiring Guy

Many Republicans who voted to approve the bill hail from the younger ranks of their party.  [No names and ages provided.)  Other notable yeses included Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and House Freedom Caucus Chair Scott Perry (R-Pa.).

As reported by Quorum:
The average age of the 117th Congress is 59 years old. Comparatively, the median age of Americans, according to the most recent census data, is 38 years old
The average age of members of Congress has continued to grow older as current members of Congress are serving longer terms into old age. The 117th Congress is the oldest on average of any Congress in recent history. [emphasis added]
