Whose job is it in the U.S. federal government to keep the US Congress united and NOT divided?
Nobody has the job of maintaining union in the US Congress. The US Congress has generally had a culture of desiring unity and bipartisanship, but there is no requirement to pursue this attitude and cordiality and no person duly elected with the purpose of trying to facilitate this kind of relationship between the various Congresspeople.Conversely, the US Congress does have members called "the Whips" whose job it is to preserve party unity in the face of adversarial policies (from other parties). The Whips in the US are relatively tame in comparison to Whips in other countries, like the United Kingdom, and can really only employ minor sanctions against Congresspeople who abandon their party and "vote with the opposition", part of trying to maintain unity in deeply partisan Congress. In the UK, a Whip can more properly sanction a bipartisan party member up to and including expulsion from the Party.
