>> The legislature
>Congress 53/45 R; House 219/215 R
It's the Senate, not "Congress". Colloquially, "Congress" usually refers to the House of Representatives.
>SCOTUS (5-4 R)
> interprets the laws.
Actually, it's 6-3, not 5-4.
I get that you're not from or live in the US. Please understand, I'm not trying to insult or demean you. But you're making statements that are not true.
I believe the term is "FTFY." And you're welcome.
- llbeansandrice 8mo agoYou are also wrong. Congress is both houses of the legislature. It’s the senate and the house of reps. FTFY

- llbeansandrice 8mo agoIf you're going to be snarky you should try being right. You said > "Congress" usually refers to the House of Representatives. Which is incorrect and what I was responding to. Reading comprehension doesn't seem to be your strong suit either eh?
- GetTheFacts 7mo agoWho is your congressperson? I needn't say any more, do I?
- GetTheFacts 7mo agoI'd also add that I said: Colloquially, "Congress" usually refers to the House of Representatives. Colloquial (adjective):[0] 1a: used in or characteristic of familiar and informal conversation Did you just not know the meaning of that word or did you intentionally decide to ignore it?

- dragonwriter 8mo ago> Colloquially, "Congress" usually refers to the House of Representatives. "Congress" is the name of the whole bicameral legislature, not either one of the houses, though "Congressman" or "Congresswoman" refers to a member of the House of Representatives.
