Electing U.S. House Representatives (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781502671424)

Though the House of Representatives is called the lower chamber of Congress, its members--numbering 435--wield powers that the Senate, the upper chamber, doesn't have. Readers of this important addition to any social studies collection will learn how representatives are elected, what their responsibilities are, and some historical legislation that they've passed. They'll also learn how the House affects their lives and how they can interact with representatives. Sidebars, fact boxes, and historical photographs will engage budding politicians with critical content, including integral parts of the social studies curriculum.
