Homer Daniel Angell ( January 12 , 1875 - March 31 , 1968 ) was a Republican U.S. congressman from Oregon . Angell was born on a farm near The Dalles , Oregon in 1875 . He received his undergraduate degree from the University of Oregon in 1900 and his law degree from Columbia University in 1903 , after which he returned to Portland to begin his law practice . He was elected to the Oregon House of Representatives in 1929 , 1931 , and 1935 and the Oregon State Senate in 1937 . He resigned that seat in 1938 to run for the United States House of Representatives , representing Oregon 's 3rd congressional district . Angell was elected and served eight terms . In 1954 , Angell was defeated for the Republican nomination by future Oregon governor Tom McCall .
The United States House of Representatives is the lower house of the United States Congress , the Senate being the upper house . Together they compose the national legislature of the United States . The composition of the House is established by Article One of the United States Constitution . The House is composed of representatives who sit in congressional districts that are allocated to each of the 50 states on a basis of population as measured by the U.S. Census , with each district entitled to one representative . Since its inception in 1789 , all representatives have been directly elected . The total number of voting representatives is fixed by law at 435 . As of the 2010 Census , the largest delegation is that of California , with fifty-three representatives . Seven states have only one representative : Alaska , Delaware , Montana , North Dakota , South Dakota , Vermont , and Wyoming . The House is charged with the passage of federal legislation , known as bills , which , after concurrence by the Senate , are sent to the president for consideration . In addition to this basic power , the House has certain exclusive powers , among them the power to initiate all bills related to revenue ; the impeachment of federal officers , who are sent to trial before the Senate ; and , in cases wherein no candidate receives a majority of electors for president , the duty falls upon the House to elect one of the top three recipients of electors for that office , with one vote given to each state for that purpose . The House meets in the south wing of the United States Capitol . The presiding officer is the speaker of the House , who is elected by the members thereof ( and is therefore traditionally the leader of the controlling party ) .
Emery Oakland Barnes , OBC ( December 15 , 1929 - July 1 , 1998 ) was a Canadian professional football player and politician . Born in Louisiana and raised in Oregon , Barnes was a gifted athlete , and was an alternate high jumper for the 1952 US Olympic Track and Field team . He played football at the University of Oregon ( from where he received his B.Sc ) and was selected by the National Football League 's Green Bay Packers in the 1954 NFL Draft ( 10th round , 207th overall . ) He played two games for the Packers in 1956 , but had much more success in the Canadian Football League with the B.C . Lions . He played 3 years , from 1962 to 1964 , for a total of 30 games and was champion in 1964 ( though an injury prevented him from playing in the Grey Cup game . ) He also received a Bachelor of Social Work degree from the University of British Columbia . Barnes worked as a social worker before entering politics . First elected to the British Columbia legislature in 1972 , and re-elected four consecutive times , he served the people of British Columbia until 1996 . Barnes and fellow NDP MLA Rosemary Brown were the first black politicians elected to a legislative office in British Columbia in the 20th century . He was particularly concerned with issues relating to social justice , human rights , and poverty . Elected Speaker of the Legislature in 1994 , he was also the first black person to hold this position in any Canadian province .
Speaker of the Legislative Assembly is a title commonly held by presiding officers of parliamentary bodies styled legislative assemblies . The office is most widely used in state and territorial legislatures in Australia , and in provincial and territorial legislatures in Canada . Examples follow .
British Columbia ( BC ; French : Colombie-Britannique ) is the westernmost province in Canada , located between the Pacific Ocean and the Rocky Mountains . With an estimated population of 5.1 million as of 2019 [ update ] , it is Canada 's third-most populous province . The first British settlement in the area was Fort Victoria , established in 1843 , which gave rise to the City of Victoria , at first the capital of the separate Colony of Vancouver Island . Subsequently , on the mainland , the Colony of British Columbia ( 1858-1866 ) was founded by Richard Clement Moody and the Royal Engineers , Columbia Detachment , in response to the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush . Moody was Chief Commissioner of Lands and Works for the Colony and the first Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia : he was hand-picked by the Colonial Office in London to transform British Columbia into the British Empire 's bulwark in the farthest west , and to found a second England on the shores of the Pacific . Moody selected the site for and founded the original capital of British Columbia , New Westminster , established the Cariboo Road and Stanley Park , and designed the first version of the Coat of arms of British Columbia . Port Moody is named after him . In 1866 , Vancouver Island became part of the colony of British Columbia , and Victoria became the united colony 's capital . In 1871 , British Columbia became the sixth province of Canada . Its Latin motto is Splendor sine occasu ( Splendour without Diminishment ) . The capital of British Columbia is Victoria , the fifteenth-largest metropolitan region in Canada , named for Queen Victoria , who ruled during the creation of the original colonies . The largest city is Vancouver , the third-largest metropolitan area in Canada , the largest in Western Canada , and the second-largest in the Pacific Northwest .
Alexander Grant Barry ( August 23 , 1892 - December 28 , 1952 ) was an American attorney and politician in the state of Oregon . A native of Astoria , he was a World War I veteran and briefly a United States Senator from late 1938 to early 1939 . A Republican , he later served in the Oregon House of Representatives .
The United States Senate is the upper chamber of the United States Congress , which , along with the United States House of Representatives - the lower chamber - constitutes the legislature of the United States . The Senate chamber is located in the north wing of the Capitol Building , in Washington , D.C . The composition and powers of the Senate are established by Article One of the United States Constitution . The Senate is composed of senators , each of whom represents a single state in its entirety . Each state , regardless of its population size , is equally represented by two senators who serve staggered terms of six years . There being at present 50 states in the Union , there are currently 100 senators . From 1789 to 1913 , senators were appointed by legislatures of the states they represented ; they are now elected by popular vote , following the ratification of the Seventeenth Amendment in 1913 . As the upper chamber of Congress , the Senate has several powers of advice and consent which are unique to it . These include the approval of treaties , and the confirmation of Cabinet secretaries , Supreme Court justices , federal judges , flag officers , regulatory officials , ambassadors , other federal executive officials and other federal uniformed officers . In addition to these , in cases wherein no candidate receives a majority of electors for vice president , the duty falls to the Senate to elect one of the top two recipients of electors for that office . Furthermore , the Senate has the responsibility of conducting the trials of those impeached by the House . The Senate is widely considered both a more deliberative and more prestigious body than the House of Representatives due to its longer terms , smaller size , and statewide constituencies , which historically led to a more collegial and less partisan atmosphere .
James Franklin Battin ( born July 28 , 1962 in Billings , Montana ) is a former California State Senator for District 37 , which includes much of Riverside County in the inland part of Southern California . Prior to serving in the State Senate , Battin served in the California State Assembly from 1994 until 2000 . Battin was term limited from the Senate in 2008 .
The California State Senate is the upper house of the California State Legislature , the lower house being the California State Assembly . The State Senate convenes , along with the State Assembly , at the California State Capitol in Sacramento . Due to a combination of the state 's large population and relatively small legislature , the State Senate has the largest population per state senator ratio of any state legislative house . In the United States House of Representatives , California is apportioned 53 U.S . Representatives , each representing approximately 704,566 people , while in the California State Senate , each of the 40 State Senators represents approximately 931,349 people . This means that California State Senators each represent more people than California 's members of the House of Representatives . In the current legislative session , Democrats currently hold a two-thirds supermajority of 29 seats , while Republicans hold 10 seats . There is one vacancy .
Suzanne Marie Bonamici /ˌbɒnəˈmiːtʃi/ ( born October 14 , 1954 ) is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for Oregon 's 1st congressional district , a seat she was first elected to in a 2012 special election . The district includes most of Portland west of the Willamette River , as well as all of Yamhill , Columbia , Clatsop , and Washington counties . A Democrat , Bonamici previously represented District 17 in the Oregon State Senate from 2008 to 2011 . She was first elected to the Oregon House of Representatives in 2006 .
Walter Frederick Brown ( born July 28 , 1926 ) is an American politician and former presidential candidate of the Socialist Party USA ( 2004 ) . Brown became a socialist in 1948 but served as Democratic member of the Oregon State Senate from 1975 to 1987 . Brown also served as a Socialist Party of Oregon candidate for the U.S. Congress ( 3rd Congressional District ) in 1998 , 2000 , 2002 and 2004 and has been the Pacific Green Party candidate for two statewide offices .
The Oregon State Senate is the upper house of the statewide legislature for the US state of Oregon . Along with the lower chamber Oregon House of Representatives it makes up the Oregon Legislative Assembly . There are 30 members of the State Senate , representing 30 districts across the state , each with a population of 114,000 . The State Senate meets at the Oregon State Capitol in Salem . Oregon State Senators serve four-year terms without term limits . In 2002 , the Oregon Supreme Court struck down the decade-old Oregon Ballot Measure 3 , that had restricted State Senators to two terms ( eight years ) on procedural grounds . Like certain other upper houses of state and territorial legislatures and the federal U.S. Senate , the State Senate can confirm or reject gubernatorial appointments to state departments , commissions , boards , and other state governmental agencies . The current Senate President is Peter Courtney of Salem . Oregon , along with Arizona , Maine , and Wyoming , is one of the four U.S. states to not have the Office of the Lieutenant Governor , a position which for most upper houses of state legislatures and indeed for the U.S. Congress ( with the Vice President ) is the head of the legislative body and holder of the casting vote in the event of a tie . Instead , a separate position of Senate President is in place , removed from the state executive branch . If the chamber is tied , legislators must devise their own methods of resolving the impasse . In 2002 , for example , Oregon 's state senators entered into a power sharing contract whereby Democratic senators nominated the Senate President while Republican senators chaired key committees .

A member of parliament ( MP ) is the representative of the voters to a parliament . In many countries with bicameral parliaments , this category includes specifically members of the lower house , as upper houses often have a different title . Member of Congress is an equivalent term in other jurisdictions . Members of parliament tend to form parliamentary groups ( also called parliamentary parties ) with members of the same political party .
The House of Commons of Canada ( French : Chambre des communes du Canada ) is the lower chamber of the bicameral Parliament of Canada , along with the sovereign ( represented by the governor general ) and the Senate of Canada . The House of Commons currently meets in a temporary Commons chamber in the West Block of the parliament buildings on Parliament Hill in Ottawa , while the Centre Block , which houses the traditional Commons chamber , undergoes a ten-year renovation . The House of Commons is a democratically elected body whose members are known as Members of Parliament ( MPs ) . There were 308 members in the 2011-2015 parliament ( most members elected in 2011 ) , but that number rose to 338 following the election on Monday October 19 , 2015 . Members are elected by simple plurality ( first-past-the-post system ) in each of the country 's electoral districts , which are colloquially known as ridings . MPs may hold office until Parliament is dissolved and serve for constitutionally limited terms of up to five years after an election . Historically however , terms have ended before their expiry and the sitting government has typically dissolved parliament within four years of an election according to a long-standing convention . In any case , an Act of Parliament now limits each term to four years . Seats in the House of Commons are distributed roughly in proportion to the population of each province and territory . However , some ridings are more populous than others , and the Canadian constitution contains provisions regarding provincial representation . As a result , there is some interprovincial and regional malapportionment relative to the population . The House of Commons was established in 1867 , when the British North America Act ( now called the Constitution Act , 1867 ) created the Dominion of Canada and was modelled on the British House of Commons .
A Member of Provincial Parliament ( MPP ) is an elected member of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Ontario . Elsewhere in Canada , the titular designation Member of Provincial Parliament has also been used to refer to the members of the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada from 1791 to 1838 , and the members of the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1955 to 1968 .
The Legislative Assembly of Ontario ( French : Assemblée législative de l'Ontario ) is the deliberative assembly of the Legislature of Ontario ( also known as the Parliament of Ontario ) . The Assembly meets at the Ontario Legislative Building at Queen 's Park in the provincial capital of Toronto . Bills passed by the assembly are given royal assent by the Queen of Canada , represented by the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario . As at the federal level in Canada , Ontario uses a Westminster-style parliamentary government , in which members are elected to the Legislative Assembly through general elections , from which the Premier of Ontario and Executive Council of Ontario are appointed based on majority support . The premier is Ontario 's head of government , while the Lieutenant Governor , as representative of the Queen , acts as head of state . The largest party not forming the government is known as the Official Opposition , its leader being recognized as Leader of the Opposition by the Speaker . The Ontario Legislature is sometimes referred to as the Ontario Provincial Parliament . Members of the assembly refer to themselves as Members of the Provincial Parliament ( MPPs ) as opposed to Members of the Legislative Assembly ( MLAs ) as in many other provinces . Ontario is the only province to do so , in accordance with a resolution passed in the Assembly on April 7 , 1938 . However , the Legislative Assembly Act refers only to members of the Assembly . The Legislative Assembly is the second largest Canadian provincial deliberative assembly by number of members after the National Assembly of Quebec . The current assembly was elected on June 7 , 2018 , as part of the 42nd Parliament of Ontario .

He later joined the ruling Liberal Democratic Party ( LDP ) . He had served 20 terms , totaling 54 years , as a Lower House member until he retired from politics at the age of 93 in June 2000 shortly before a general election . Hara is the second longest serving legislator in the post-war period next only to former Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone . After serving as labor minister and director general of the National Land Agency and the Hokkaido Development Agency , he served as Lower House speaker from July 1986 to June 1989 . Known lovingly by his constituents by the nickname Haraken , Hara was one of the most influential politicians in Japan during the 20th century . He served as a legislator for over half the century and became the Speaker of the Lower House . He was first elected in 1946 as Douglas MacArthur arrived to oversee the occupation and reconstruction of Japan surrender of World War II . As one of the few legislators to speak proficient English , Hara was invited into the deliberations of MacArthur 's inner circle . Hara made controversial statements as measured by western standards .
