What do senators and representatives have in common? How do they differ?

History

Oxana [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The main similarity between the two would be that they serve the same purpose. They both exist to create legislation in our nation, and

both senators and representatives are chosen through direct election.

Each state has exactly two senators, but the number of representatives is based on the state's population.

Their terms also differ in length. A senator will represent their state for a six-year term, while a representative, serves for a two-year term.

Senators have the privilege of voting on whether or not to confirm the President’s judicial nominees, and representatives do not have this right or responsibility.

A United States Senator must be at 30 years old and have at least been a United States citizen for nine years. A representative instead needs to be just 25 years old and have spent at least seven years as a United States citizen.

Both Senators and Representatives are required to be residents of the states for which they serve.

Both Senators and Representatives are permitted to introduce bills, however

Senators are restricted from introducing bills that raise revenue, such as tax bills, but they are permitted to reject or make amendments to such bills.

United States Representatives are responsible for choosing the President in the event that the Electoral College is unable to provide a decision, and are also expected to vote on whether or not to begin the impeachment process.

A Senator, on the other hand, may be called on to vote for a Vice President if the electoral vote is tied. A Senator also has the power to vote to approve treaties and it is the Senate that holds trials for impeached public officials.
