We the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,
insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare,
and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish
this Constitution for the United States of America.
ARTICLE ONE
Section 1. All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States,
which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
Section 2. The House of Representatives shall be composed of members chosen
every second year by the people of the several States, and the electors in each State shall have
the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legislature.
No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the age of twenty five years,
and been seven years a citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an
inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen.
Representatives and direct taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be
included within this Union, according to their respective numbers, which shall
be determined by adding to the whole number of free persons,
including those bound to service for a term of years, and excluding Indians not taxed,
three fifths of all other persons. The actual enumeration shall be made within three years
after the first meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent
term of ten years, in such manner as they shall by law direct. The number of Representatives shall
not exceed one for every thirty thousand, but each State shall have at least one Representative;
and until such enumeration shall be made, the State of New Hampshire shall be entitled to choose three,
Massachusetts eight, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations one, Connecticut five, New York six,
New Jersey four, Pennsylvania eight, Delaware one, Maryland six, Virginia ten, North Carolina five, South Carolina five and Georgia three.
When vacancies happen in the Representation from any State, the executive authority thereof shall
issue writs of election to fill such vacancies.
The House of Representatives shall choose their Speaker and other officers;
and shall have the sole power of Impeachment.
Section 3. The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State,
chosen by the legislature thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one Vote.
Immediately after they shall be assembled in consequence of the first election,
they shall be divided as equally as may be into three classes.
The seats of the Senators of the first class shall be vacated at the expiration of the second year,
of the second class at the expiration of the fourth year, and of the third class at the expiration of
the sixth year, so that one third may be chosen every second year;
and if vacancies happen by resignation, or otherwise, during the recess of the legislature of any State,
the executive thereof may make temporary appointments until the next meeting of the legislature,
which shall then fill such vacancies.
No person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the age of thirty years,
and been nine years a citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected,
be an inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen.
The Vice-President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no vote,
unless they be equally divided.
The Senate shall choose their other officers, and also a President pro tempore,
in the absence of the Vice-President, or when he shall exercise the office of President of the United States.
The Senate shall have the sole power to try all impeachments. When sitting for that purpose,
We the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,
insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare,
and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish
this Constitution for the United States of America.
