As of this writing (December 1, 2008), two former U.S. presidents have returned to Congress: John Quincy Adams and Andrew Johnson.

Adams, the 6th President of the United States, was elected to the House of Representatives in the year 1831, and served eight terms as a Representative, until his death in 1848.

Andrew Johnson, the 17th president, was eventually elected to the Senate in 1875. His term, however, lasted less than 5 months, as he died of a stroke that same year.

John Quincy Adams was the only one to serve in the House after being President.

Andrew Johnson was a senator after his time as president.
