In which Craig Benzine teaches you about the United States Congress, why it’s bicameral, and what bicameral means. Craig tells you what the Senate and House of Representatives are for, talks about some of the histories of the institutions, and reveals to you just how you can become a representative. It’s not that easy. But an eagle gets punched, so there’s that.
