Who is the most formal in congress house or senate?
It depends on what you mean by "formal." The House has more formal rules. Bills can only be discussed for a certain period of time, they will be heard at certain dates/times, only relevant discussion is permitted, and etc. The formality here is that most bills follow the same formal pattern through the house. The Senate is the more prestigious house. The rules here are relaxed. There are only 100 of them, they have 6 year terms, and etc, so they're seen, in a sense, as more formal/prestigious. --Charlie G.
