It is true that Steve Pearce has served on more committees than Tom Udall; however, Udall, elected in 1998, has four more years of experience in the House of Representatives than Pearce, who was elected in 2002. To be fair, experience in the legislative process should be judged based on the entirety of a candidate's career, not just which committees he or she has been named to. To get a breakdown of each candidate's biography, see the link below.
