The House of Representatives is the lower house in Congress.

The United States Congress is a bicameral legislature, meaning it has two chambers:

• House of Representatives: This is the larger body with more members (currently 435). Representatives serve two-year terms and are apportioned among the states based on population.
• Senate: This is the smaller body with two members from each state (regardless of population size). Senators serve six-year terms with staggered elections.
