The number of senators throughout U.S. history is several times smaller than the number of officials who have served in the U.S. House of Representatives (which stands at more than 11,000), because the Senate is the smaller house of the national legislature (Congress of the United States). The Senate is made up of 100 members; two members are elected from each of the 50 U.S. states, and each senator serves a six-year term.
