The United States often hears about federal lawmakers and state lawmakers, and they don't mean the same thing.

The United States is a federal country, which consists of 5 states. Federal congressmen refer to the members of the central government of the United States, representing the image and responsibility of the members of the United States, and being responsible for the whole country of the United States. There are 2 senators from each state and 1 senators from * * * for a term of six years, and they are re-elected by one third every two years. Members of the House of Representatives are elected according to the proportion of population in each state, with 435 members elected for a term of two years, and all of them will be re-elected at the expiration of the term. Members of both houses can be re-elected for an unlimited term. All members of the Senate and House of Representatives are full-time and may not concurrently hold government positions. State legislators are state legislators, representing the image and responsibility of the state and being responsible to the people of the state. In principle, federal lawmakers do not interfere with state legislators, and they have no right to interfere. State legislators are elected by the people of their own state, which is somewhat similar to the relationship between China's NPC deputies and provincial NPC deputies. One center, one place.

U.S. senators and representatives make up the legislature: Congress. The U.S. Congress generally goes through such procedures as proposal, committee deliberation and general meeting of the whole hospital. After the first hospital passed, it was sent to another hospital and went through the same procedure in turn. The bill is passed by the two houses and then submitted to the president for signature; If the president does not veto it, or if it is vetoed but re-passed by two-thirds of the members of both houses, it will formally become law.

The main and most obvious task of the U.S. Congress is to legislate and make laws that affect every American. Legislation often needs to make decisions on some controversial issues, such as medical insurance reform, war, trade exchange rate, etc., and the bill can only become law after a series of deliberation procedures.
