Each house of Congress has rules to follow in conducting business because if they did not have rules there would be complete chaos. There has to be someone in charge also to control meetings and see that people are recognized to speak.
For starters, I believe that by congress you were referring to the House. Because Congress is made up by both the House and the Senate. The answer is NO. the Senate actually has less rules than that of the House because it is a much smaller body of people that are easier to manage.
The two houses of Congress - the House of Representatives, and the Senate - each have their own sets of rules defining how members (over 400 in the house, exactly 100 in the senate) interact, debate, communicate, speak their ideas, vote, and otherwise do their jobs while in session. The rules for each house allow both houses of congress to do what they've been hired to do - make good laws, make bad laws better, and make needed laws quickly without sacrificing quality. When Congress is operating efficiently, both of the other branches of government are able to operate more efficiently to better serve the people they're been chosen to govern.
