No - the term for a place in Congress is 2 years, so if running for re-election they would run during their 2nd year (not their 1st).

No, Congressmen do not run for re-election every year. Members of the House of Representatives serve two-year terms, so they must run for re-election every two years. Senators serve six-year terms, so they only run for re-election every six years.
