The terms of the Congress run for two full years; the Congress is said to be "in session" twice--at least once in every year, as required under the Constitution of the United States--during its respective terms. Approximately one out of every three members of the Senate is said to "stand for re-election" every two years; the entire membership of the House of Representatives stands for re-election every two years.

Two years. The 111th Congress convened on January 3rd, 2009.
