The 435 members of the U.S. House of Representatives serve short terms (two years) and are elected by far fewer people (only those in their respective districts) than the members of the U.S. Senate.

This week the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, of which Patrick McHenry is a member, held hearings on the causes of the current financial crisis.
