Unit 2 – Branches of Government
Topic 2.2
Why has the bicameral structure of Congress continued since its establishment?
It allows each state to have two representatives in both houses of Congress.
It provides equal representation for all states in the Senate and proportional representation in the House based on population.
The president can veto decisions made by one house but not both.
It promotes efficiency by enabling swift decision making.
