Unit 8 discusses the legislative branch (the House of Representatives and Senate, the two bodies of the "bicameral" legislature), also known as "congress." We mix it up in this unit by introducing a classic, a comedy, and a TV series that show both altruistic and demonized versions of congress.

The movies and series are as follows:
