Summary:

Prior to 1989, the Architect of the Capitol (AOC) was appointed by the Presidentfor an unlimited term without any direct action by the Senate. A provision in theFY1990 Legislative Branch Appropriations Act (P.L. 101-163) altered this selectionprocedure, requiring the President to nominate the AOC for a 10-year term, subject tothe advice and consent of the Senate. Presently, a search is underway for a newArchitect to replace Alan Hantman, FAIA, who left office on February 4, 2007.
