The Two Houses. The most discussed, the most criticized and the least understood institution in American politics is the national law-making body, Congress. It consists of two houses. The upper house, or Senate, has a fixed membership of ninety-six, two members from each of the forty-eight states. The lower body, the House of Representatives, has a changing membership based on the population of the various states. The number is now set at four hundred and thirty-five, New York having the greatest representation, forty-three, and Delaware, A rizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Wyoming, the smallest number, one. Alaska and Hawaii each have one delegate, who is allowed to serve on certain committees and to take part in debate, but not to vote. The Philippine Islands and Porto Rico have resident commissioners with privileges similar to those of the territorial delegates.
