The majority party in each house of Congress selects its spokesperson, known as the Majority Leader, through an internal party election. The role of the Majority Leader is to represent the party's interests, set the legislative agenda, and coordinate legislative activities. The same process is followed by the minority party to select its spokesperson, known as the Minority Leader. These leaders play crucial roles in shaping legislative priorities and strategies.
