The number of members in the House of Representatives depends on the population size of each state, with states having larger populations receiving more representatives. In contrast, the Senate has a fixed number of members, with each state represented by two senators, regardless of its population. This structure ensures both proportional representation in the House and equal representation in the Senate.

Can the size of the Congress change?

The only constitutional rule relating to the size of the House says: "The Number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every thirty Thousand."Congress has regularly increased the size of the House to account for population growth; but Congress fixed the number of voting House members at 435 in 1911. The number was temporarily increased to 437 in 1959 upon the admission of Alaska and Hawaii(seating one representative from each of those states without changing existing apportionment), and returned to 435 four years later, after the reapportionment consequent to the 1960 census.
