	United States Congress - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is bicameral, comprising the House of Representatives and the Senate.
		Congress meets in the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. The term, "Congress" may also refer to a particular meeting of the Congress, reckoned according to the terms of Representatives.
		For instance, Congress may not suspend the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus (except in extreme cases of rebellion or invasion), pass bills of attainder or ex post facto laws, or grant titles of nobility.

	United States House of Representatives - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The bicameral Congress arose from the desire of the Founding Fathers to create a "house of the people" that would closely resemble and follow public opinion, in addition to a more deliberative, learned and reserved Senate which would be less susceptible to the frenzies of mass sentiment.
		The chamber of the United States House of Representatives is located in the south wing of the Capitol building, in Washington, D.C. This photograph shows a rare glimpse of the four vote tallying boards (the flish squares across the top), which display each member's name and vote as votes are in progress.
		Congress has the power to set members' salaries, however the Twenty-Seventh Amendment prohibits a change in wages to take effect in the same two-year term that it is passed into law.
