House of Representatives vs. Senators: What Are Their Powers and Responsibilities? | June 16, 2025
The House of Representatives are composed of district representatives and party-list representatives.
In the case of ABAKADA GURO PARTY LIST vs. HON. CESAR V. PURISIMA, the Supreme Court stated that legislative power or the power to propose, enact, amend and repeal laws is vested in Congress which consists of two chambers, the Senate and the House of Representatives. A valid exercise of legislative power requires the act of both chambers. Corrollarily, it can be exercised neither solely by one of the two chambers nor by a committee of either or both chambers.
