Democrat Nancy Pelosi is a representative, not a senator... As Speaker of the House, she is the most powerful person in Congress. Steny Hoyer is the House Majority Leader, who ranks only below Nancy Pelosi. James Clyburn is the House Majority Whip. On the Republican side, John Boehner is the Minority Leader, and Eric Cantor is the Minority Whip. The leaders are in charge of their party (unless the Speaker is from your party - then the Speaker ranks above the leader). The whips make sure their party votes the way the leadership wants. Representatives who hold committee chairs are also quite powerful. They are in charge of bills that go through their respective committees, before making it to the floor for a full vote.
