Statement 1 is false. Representatives in the House of Representatives are determined by population. There are two senators from every state. Statement two would be true. I senators are elected for a six-year term. Statement 3 is true the leader of the House of Representatives is known as the Speaker of the House. Statement four I believe is true because I believe a bill go through the Senate than the House of Representatives then on to the president. Statement 5 I believe is false because a person has to be 25 years old to run for the House of Representatives. A senator must be 30 years old.
