The US parliament house is commonly referred to as the Congress. There are also two parts of Congress: The House which consists of a number representatives from every state based on the population of that state.They vote on bills to be passed onwards in government. And then there is the Senate, consisting as well of representatives. However, every state gets only two representatives despite population number. The Senate votes to pass or reject bills that have made it through the House, and if the president doesn't veto it, bills passed in the Senate become law.
