the house of representatives was based on the population of the state and the senate was 2 representatives per state no matter the population.
There are a lot more than 3 members of the House of Representatives - there are 435
The United States House of Representatives is composed of 435 voting members. This number is set by law and is based on the population of each state, with states having more residents receiving more representatives. Additionally, there are six non-voting members who represent U.S. territories and the District of Columbia.
Based on the 2010 Census, there are 53 members of the U.S. House of Representatives from California. That is more than any other U.S. state.
There are more than five members of the House of Representatives. As of 2014, there are 435 voting members and 6 non-voting members.
Because each state's number of members in the house is based on that states population. In example the # of house reps in california will be more then the # of reps for the state of rhode island
In the house of representatives there are 435 members. Unlike the senate that has 2 members for each state in the house some states may only have 1 representative while others have 18 or more. The amount each state has depends on its population, after each census the number of representatives for each state is adjusted.
The House of Representatives has more members than the Senate because its representation is based on population, with larger states having more representatives. This design ensures that the interests of more populous states are proportionally represented in Congress. The total number of representatives is capped at 435, distributed among the states according to the decennial census. In contrast, the Senate allocates two members per state, regardless of population size, resulting in a smaller total number of senators.
The House of Representatives has 435 elected members
The House of Representatives is favored by larger states because the number of representatives in the House for each state is decided by the states' population. This means that larger states have more representatives. Therefore, they will have more votes and a bigger influence.
the house of representatives would be able to spend more time doing legislative work than the senate because there are more members in the house of representatives than in the senate
The Senate is to provide states equal representation -- there are two senators from each state. The House of Representatives is to provide representatives proportionate to population -- states with greater population have more representatives than states with smaller populations. (However gerrymandering prevents these representatives from representing the general population.)
Every state has 2 senators so no state will have more. Representatives are based on population and the states are divided into districts from which a representative is chosen. Some states do have more representatives than others.
