United States Government The Constitution created a government of three equal branches, or parts. The Constitution is the plan and set of rules for our government. The three branches are: LEGISLATIVE EXECUTIVE JUDICIAL

The Legislative Branch The Constitution created Congress. It is a group of people elected to make laws for the country. Congress has two parts:  The Senate The House of Representatives

The Senate There are 100 senators. Each state has 2 senators. A Senator is in office for 6 years.  This is called a “term.” Senators meet in the U.S. Capitol building.

The House of Representatives There are 435 representatives. The more people that live in a state, the more representatives it has. Representatives serve for a term of 2 years. They can be elected for more than one term.

The  Executive  Branch The President, or Chief Executive, is the head of the government. Americans vote every four years for their leader of their democratic society. After elected to serve his/her country, the president lives and works in the White House.

The  Judicial  Branch The Supreme Court is the highest court is the U. S., and is the system of courts to settle questions about the laws. The nine justices can serve for as long as they live, or wish to retire. Each justice is chosen by the president.
