Each of the 435 members of the House of Representatives serves a two-year term. The 100 Senators six-year terms. However, the majority of incumbent congressmen are often reelected to multiple terms. Since members of the House serve two-year terms, it can be said that Congress is reelected every 2 years.

Terms for US Senators are six years, which means each Senator is up for re-election every six years, however terms are staggered and so approximately 1/3 of Senate seats are up for election every two years.
