However the legislative branch is divided into two parts, the Senate and the House of Representatives. In common usage, members of the Senate are called Senators and members of the House of Representatives are called congressmen.

In the United States, for example. We have what is called a "representative democracy". We elect people who are *supposed* to represent us at the national level. The congressmen are those people.
