Default Re: Anyone emigrating out of the US?

how many people are in congress ???

435 - perhaps, it might be an idea

for local people to run for these positions

and, get rid of the current reps

wiki says:

Each of the 435 members of the House of Representatives
represents a district and serves a two-year term.
House seats are apportioned among the states by population.
The 100 Senators serve staggered six-year terms.
Each state has two senators, regardless of population.
Every two years, approximately one-third of the Senate is elected at a time. Re-election rates for incumbents often exceed 90%
