The House of Representatives in the lower house in congress because back in the 1700's when all of this was being debated, there was a Virginia plan and a New Jersey plan and the Virginia plan is now the lower house and the New Jersey plan is the upper house because Virginia's plan was based on population and the New Jersey plan was based on size. Then, another guy came along, combined the two ideas and made it work. The House of Reps. is the lower house because since it depends on population, some of the smaller states wouldn't get an equal vote, making it the lower house, and since some states are smaller, they are the upper house and get first choice so that they don't get outvoted.
