  • The president pro tempore of the United States Senate (also president pro tem) is the second-highest-ranking official of the United States Senate. Article I, Section Three of the United States Constitution provides that the vice president of the United States, despite not being a senator, is the president of the Senate. It also establishes that the Senate must choose a president pro tempore to act in his or her absence: The Senate shall choose their other Officers, and also a President pro tempore, in the absence of the Vice President, or when he or she shall exercise the Office of President of the United States. In practice, neither the vice president nor the president pro tempore usually presides; instead, the duty of presiding officer is rotated among junior senators of the majority party to give them experience in parliamentary procedure. The president pro tempore is third in the line of succession to the presidency, after the vice president and the Speaker of the House of Representatives and ahead of the Secretary of State. Since 1890, the most senior senator in the majority party has generally been chosen to be president pro tempore, and holds the office continuously until the election of another president pro tempore. During most of the 62nd Congress, following William Frye's resignation on April 27, 1911, five senators—Augustus Bacon, Charles Curtis, Jacob Gallinger, Henry Cabot Lodge, and Frank Brandegee—alternated as president pro tempore. In 2001, the honorary title of president pro tempore emeritus was created, and it has been given to a senator of the minority party who has previously served as president pro tempore. The current president pro tempore of the Senate, Democrat Patrick Leahy of Vermont, assumed office on January 20, 2021, during the 117th Congress. Since the office was created in 1789, 91 individuals, from 39 of the 50 states, have served as president pro tempore of the Senate. The number of presidents pro tempore from each state are: * One: Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Texas, Washington, West Virginia, and Wisconsin; * Two: Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Rhode Island, and Utah; * Three: Massachusetts, Ohio, and Pennsylvania; * Four: Connecticut, Michigan, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Vermont; * Six: Georgia and New Hampshire; * Seven: Virginia. Every president pro tempore has been a member of a political party or faction; the number affiliated with each is: Democratic – 31; Republican – 25; Democratic-Republican – 15; Federalist – 10; Jacksonian – 3; Anti-Administration – 2; National Republican – 2; Pro-Administration – 2; Whig – 2; Independent – 1.
