The design and description of Congress is written into the U.S. Constitution, which was passed by the legislature on 17 September 1787, ratified by the states on 21 June 1788, and went into effect on 4 March 1789. The 1st Congress assembled on 4 March 1789, although they did not have enough members present to carry out business until the following month.
