The Senate and The House of Representatives

Legislative Branch

The Senate

The State Senate members serve terms that vary by state, typically four years, with staggered elections.

A senator must meet specific requirements, similar to those for representatives, often including age and residency criteria.

Each state is divided into a number of districts, each represented by one or more senators. The number of senators varies by state.

The House of Representatives

The State House of Representatives members serve terms that vary by state, typically two or four years.

All members are elected during state elections, which often coincide with national midterm or presidential elections.

A representative must meet specific requirements, usually including being at least 21 or 25 years old, a resident of the state for a certain period, and in some cases, a resident of the district they represent.

The number of representatives in a state house varies widely depending on the state's constitution or legislation. Each representative serves a specific district within the state.

The total number of state representatives varies by state, with states having as few as 40 to over 400 members.
