True. The U.S. Senate is 100 people, two from each State. The House of Representatives is 435 people, elected proportionally from all the states. So the least populous States have only one Representative, while the most populous states have 35 or more.
The House is "re-apportioned" by population based on the results of the Census, held every 10 years. States that gain people gain representatives, while States that lose people (or where the population remains about the same, since other states are becoming more populous) may lose representatives.
