    The Senate

    The 50 states elect 2 senators each for staggered 6-

    year terms. A senator represents between 1 and 37

    million people, depending on their state’s population.

    The day-to-day activities of the Senate are controlled

    largely by the political party holding the most seats,

    called the "majority party." Here is a count of senators

    by party:

    Republicans 52

    Democrats 46

    Independents 2

    Total 100

    The House of Representatives

    The states are also divided into 435 congressional

    districts with a population of about 710,000 each. Each

    district elects a representative to the House of

    Representatives for a 2-year term.

    As in the Senate, the day-to-day activities of the House

    are controlled by the "majority party." Here is a count

    of representatives by party:

    Republicans 241

    Democrats 194

    Total 435

    In addition, the District of Columbia and the U. S.’s five

    island territories each send a non-voting delegate to

    the House. Puerto Rico’s delegate is called the

    Resident Commissioner.
