Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY) put out his first feelers for a new roommate after Rep. George Miller (D-CA) announced his retirement plans on Monday.

Schumer, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Miller are housemates in a Capitol Hill rowhouse nicknamed the “Animal House” which has been profiled numerous times and has become the subject of the Amazon original series “Alpha House.”

Former Rep. Bill Delahunt (D-MA) also lived in the house before his retirement in 2010. Reporting on the shared living space have often highlighted its dirty conditions and compared it to a frat house.
