The house of congress with the fewest members?
In the United States government, we have two Houses in the Legislative branch. These two Houses are the House of Representatives and the Congress. By definition, Congress has only two members per state (so, 100 members). The House of Representatives has the number of members based on the population of the states they represent. I think they have around 500 members, but don't quote me on that. So, if I understand what you're asking, the Congress is the house with the least members. I hope that helps. U.S. SENATE,ONLY 100 MEMBERS

The number of members for each state depends on?
I assume you're talking about Congress. For every state there are two Senate members. This does not change. However, there are 435 members in the House of Representatives. There is a law saying that there should be a fixed number of 435, but Congress has the right to appoint how ever many they want. Each state is entitled to at least one representative. The rest is based on percentage to population, but each representative on average represents 30,000-40,000 people.
The Constitution requires that how many of the members of Congress be present in order to vote on a bill?
The Constitution requires that at least one half of the members of Congress be present in order to vote on a bill. Without that amount, a vote cannot be held.
How do members of congress make decisions?
After the passage of the 17th Amendment, all members of Congress are now elected by popular vote of their district or state. Should a vacancy occur after an election, it is up to the individual state to decide how to fill that vacancy for the remainder of the term. Some states stipulate a special election, others allow the governor to appoint someone, and a few have the state legislature appoint someone.
Can members of congress retire at full pay after one term?
No, members of Congress do not receive full pay after serving only one term. The retirement benefits for members of Congress are based on a complex formula that takes into account length of service and age at retirement. Typically, members need to serve at least five terms (10 years) to be eligible for any retirement benefits, and the amount they receive is determined by various factors.
