Replying to my own comment... the Senate represents the States who are the parties bound by the laws of the U.S. Government. The House represents the People who would ultimately have to pay (taxes) to fund the U.S. Government. Other than direct crimes against the U.S. Government (think treason) U.S. laws were not meant to apply directly to people, just states. The 14th Amendment created the U.S. Citizen (as opposed to citizens of a state) which was/is a subject of the U.S. Government and is why/how the U.S. Government laws now get applied directly to people.
