I have to list the majority and minority leader of both the house and senate:

House majority -Steny Hoyer
House minority -John Boehner

Senate majority - Harry Reid
Senate minority - Mitch McConnell
I believe this is correct but in the senate it also lists :

Assist majority - Richard Durbin
Assist minority - Jon Kyl
should these people be listed under leaders of the senate also?? Thanks

I wouldn't list the assistants.

Thank you

Yes, you are correct in listing Steny Hoyer as the House Majority Leader and John Boehner as the House Minority Leader. In the Senate, Harry Reid is indeed the Senate Majority Leader and Mitch McConnell is the Senate Minority Leader.

Regarding the positions you mentioned in the Senate, these are actually the roles of the Majority Whip and Minority Whip. The Majority Whip and Minority Whip are responsible for assisting the Majority Leader and Minority Leader, respectively, in managing their party's legislative agenda and ensuring party discipline during votes.

So, while Richard Durbin should be listed as the Assistant Majority Leader, it is not technically one of the Senate leadership positions. Similarly, Jon Kyl should be listed as the Assistant Minority Leader, which is again a role assisting the Minority Leader.

In summary, to accurately list the majority and minority leaders, you would have:

House Majority Leader: Steny Hoyer
House Minority Leader: John Boehner
Senate Majority Leader: Harry Reid
Senate Minority Leader: Mitch McConnell

And if you want to include the positions you mentioned:

Senate Assistant Majority Leader: Richard Durbin
Senate Assistant Minority Leader: Jon Kyl
