How many voting members are in the House of Representatives?

The House of Representatives is composed of 435 voting members. This number is established by law and reflects the apportionment of representatives among the states based on population, as determined by the Census conducted every ten years. Each state is guaranteed at least one representative, but states with larger populations have more representatives. This structure ensures that the House of Representatives remains a body that represents the diverse populations of the United States fairly, allowing for significant representation of various regions and interests. This established number plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of power within the legislative branch of the U.S. government.
