Question

explain how the structure, powers, and functions of both houses of congress affect the policy-making process. (differences between house and senate, speaker of the house, president pro-tem., party leader, party whip, filibuster, cloture, rules committee, discharge petition, confirmation power)

Answer 1

         Senators represent entire states, whereas House members represent individual districts. Each state is represented in Congress by at least one representative.

Who is House Member and Senator ?

The structure, powers, and functions of both houses of Congress affect the policymaking process are mentioned below:

• Delegated powers necessitate collaboration between both houses of Congress. These powers include the authority to tax, borrow money, regulate commerce, raise an army, create and make rules for federal courts, and so on.
• The Congress also has the power of the purse, which it can use to influence the president or impose conditions on funding.
• Because the House of Representatives has 435 members, the process of debating bills is constrained. Because the Senate has only 100 members, there are few rules that govern it.
• The House Rules Committee is in charge of establishing or revising rules for amending bills. Open rules allow amendments to be added to bills, whereas closed rules do not allow amendments to be added to bills.

        All bills that seek to raise funds must begin in the House of Representatives. The House has the authority to impeach, whereas the Senate has the authority to try impeachments. Furthermore, the Senate must approve treaties and presidential appointments such as ambassadors and Supreme Court justices.
