The U.S. equivalent of the House of Lords is the Senate. Like the House of Lords, the Senate serves as the upper chamber of the legislative branch, with members serving longer terms and representing entire states rather than individual districts. Senators have significant powers, including the ability to confirm presidential appointments and ratify treaties. However, unlike the House of Lords, the Senate is an elected body, with all members chosen by popular vote.
