Congress Info
-
- Le Congrès est le corps législatif des États-Unis. Il est composé de la Chambre des représentants (House of Representatives) qui compte 435 membres élus pour un mandat de deux ans, et du Sénat (Senate) qui compte 100 sénateurs, deux par État, élus pour six ans. Un tiers des sénateurs est renouvelé tous les deux ans. Pour devenir loi (act), un projet de loi (bill) doit être examiné puis approuvé par les deux chambres, et ratifié par le président. Le Congrès siège au Capitole, situé sur Capitol Hill à Washington DC. Par métonymie, the Capitol ou the Hill font donc référence au Congrès. → Checks and balances Washington DC
