Answer:
Answers for what I know are below.
Explanation:
Why do some people want term limits on members of Congress?
To prevent ¨career politicians¨ aka legislators that mostly do not work for the people they represent, but special interest groups/lobbyists (they pay them for doing what they want within the legislative branch).
Why are current methods of redistricting widely viewed as unfair?
Redistricing is now usually controlled by one political party which leads to bias, unfair, and manipulative practices (aka gerrymandering).
What is the purpose of gerrymandering?
To give a political party an advantage within an electoral district.
Explain the concept of logrolling and quid pro quo, or "You scratch my back and Il scratch yours."
A political favor in exchange for a political favor. An example would be using your position as President to appoint a Supreme Court justice´s daughter to your cabinet in exchange for upholding a view of yours in their court of law (this is illegal).
What are some differences in the powers of the House and the Senate?
The house members are voted into office from their certain congressional district (based off of population) for 2 years, while senators are voted into office from their US state for 6 years.
Impeachments (formal accusation) begin in the house, as do spending bills.
The senate votes to confirm, or deny, many federal appointees, these incude Supreme Court and other federal court judges, ambassadors, cabinet secretaries, and many others. The senate also has the sole right to hold an impeachment trial (acting as a court of law).
