The House of Representatives is a legislative branch of the US government. What might be a better question is what unique duties are assigned to the House? The answer is that is has prime responsibility over US spending and taxation.

It is also important to note that the Speaker of the House is third in line to the US presidency. The idea behind that is that the House and its speaker have a closer voter relationship to the US electorate.
