Understanding the Legislative Branch in US Government

In the United States government we have 3 branches. One of the branches that without it we can’t make any laws. This branch is called the legislative branch. In this branch its job is to make laws. In this branch which is set up into two houses the House of Representatives, and the Senate. In this bicameral branch each house has different roles and is set up differently. The reason for this was because when the constitution was being ratified, the smaller states fear that the larger states would have more power than them. Later on the states came to a compromise that in the lower house would be on population (for the larger states), while in the upper house that all states will equal

representation in Congress no matter how big or small (for the smaller states).
In the Senate consist of 100 members (2 members for each state). Unlike the House of Representatives, Senators are selected by state legislatures. In order to qualify to be at senator you must at least the age of 30, must be a citizen of the U.S, and must be a resident of the state in which they represent. Senators have at least 6-year terms. In the Senate provide advice and consent on executive nominations and conduct oversight of the branches if the federal government.
In the Senate there are over 26 committees.

In each committee it’s over what to decide which bills and resolutions should move forward to the consideration by the House or Senate as whole. Each committee chairmen have enormous influence over this process. Such as the House of Representatives there are also leaders of the senate such as the president of the Senate whose job is to be the principal of the Senate, the Speaker of the House who preside over session of the House or Assembly, the Majority leader who speaks for the majority, unlike the minority leader who speaks for the minorities, etc.
In the House of Representatives are made of 435 members and 6 non- voting members for the territories of the United States. In the House of Representatives each representative is elected every two years. In order to be a representative you must be a least 25 years of age, must be a citizen of the U.S for at least seven years, and you must be a resident of the state of your

representation.
The House of Representative is organized by majority leaders, minority leader, whips, and caucus. In the House of Representatives there are 28 different types of committees that consider bills, issues, and oversee the agencies, programs, and the activities in their jurisdiction only. There are also leaders of the House such as the Speaker of the House who is leader of the house, the Majority Leader, the Democratic Leader (who are represents the political parties in the house), the Majority Whip, the Democratic Whip (Assists leadership in managing party’s legislative program for the political parties), the Republican Conference Chairman (heads organization for all republican party members in the house, Assistant Democratic Leader (works with caucuses as liaison to Appropriations Committee), the Republican Policy Committee Chairman (heads conference forum for policy development), and the Democratic Caucus Chairman (head organization of all democratic party members in the house).

Another power of congress to raise the military.
