Together, one hundred senators, the Vice President, and four hundred
and
thirty-five representatives make up the Legislative Branch. Not just
lawmakers, members of congress also investigate government activities,
declare war, impeach public officials such as the president or a judge,
create taxes, make treaties, and change the Constitution. Take a look
at How Congress Works to see how members of the Senate and the House
of Representatives work together to do what is best for our nation
while representing the people of America--including you! |
