What is the length of one term for a Senator?

A Senator serves a term of 6 years. This term length is established by the U.S. Constitution, specifically in Article I, Section 3. The longer term allows Senators to focus on long-term policies and governance without the constant pressure of re-election that shorter terms might impose. Senators serve a staggered election cycle, meaning that approximately one-third of the Senate is up for election every two years. This structure ensures continuity within the Senate, allowing it to remain stable while still providing opportunities for citizens to elect new senators at regular intervals.
