Because all 435 of the House's seats are up for election every two years, the house technically has no sworn members, no rules, and no organization until its opening day ceremonies are held. The Senate is a continuous body with 1/3 of its 100 seats up for election every two years, therefore the Senate's opening day is more structured and organized than the House of Reps.
