||**Committee Sweep** - Committee roster, name, and activity checks and experience creation for inactive members||30-35 per day (10-15 minutes per committee)||30 per week (15 minutes per committee)||
||**Contact Information** – physical and web addresses||60-90 per day (5-10 minutes per politician)||120-180 per week (5-10 minutes per politician)||
**Staff Expectations:** These expectations are based on how much experienced researchers focusing solely on research are completing in an 8 hour work day. Other responsibilities for staff (intern supervision, QC, meetings) can take away from this dedicated research time. An experienced staff member can be defined as a staff member past the 6 month mark.
*These are estimates based on current and former Research Director's experience and consultation with current staff members. Actual time trials and tests would be useful to either confirm or adjust these estimates.
