Is the senate more formal when considering a bill than the house?
It depends what you mean by formal. There are many more formal rules governing House procedure than Senate procedure, mainly due to the higher number of people in the House and the relative seniority and respect that the Senate has. That being said, the formality of the bill discussion relies mainly on who's involved with the bill and to what the bill pertains. The House is usually more formal about everyday bills like OSHA regulations or tariff rates, but bring in an issue like federal funding of abortion and there will probably be some shouting and name-calling in the House as well as the Senate.
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.
