    This document discusses the powers of the House and Senate in the US Congress. It asks questions about their concurrent and exclusive powers, how the legislative process differs from the UK Parliament, why the Senate is seen as more prestigious due to its term limits, size and constituencies. It also questions how debate rules give Senators power, the Senate's influence over international agreements and executive appointments, and why the Origination Clause actually gives less power to the House than it seems. The overarching question is about which chamber of Congress is the most powerful.
