In a state - any member of the State Legislature. In the Congress - any member of the Representative or Senator.
In the US, the House of Representatives are elected by the voters in their respective states. The number of Representatives a state may have is based on population. Some states have such a low level of population, they have only one member in the House of Representatives. As a consequence of the US Constitution, some low population states have two senators and one House member. This is quite unusual, and normally the reverse is true.
The 628-member parliament, termed the Federal Assembly, consists of two chambers, the 450-member State Duma (the lower house) and the 176-member Federation Council (the upper house).
The 2nd level in the United States of America's federal government system is state governments. Though state governments are sovereign from the federal government, they are considered to be part of it.
Depends on the state. In most states there is a bicameral legislature. The names of the two houses vary state to state (usually a Senate and Assembly or House of Delegates). Nebraska is the only state with a single house in its legislature (simply called the 'Legislature'.)
