Composition

Senate
24 senators
House of Representatives
297 representatives

Both chambers of Congress are divided into parties and blocs. While members are elected via parties, blocs are the basis for committee memberships. Only members of the majority and minority blocs are accorded committee memberships. This is how blocs are determined:

• Majority bloc: All members who voted for the Senate President or Speaker during the Senate presidential or speakership election.
• Minority bloc: All members who voted for the second-placed candidate during the Senate presidential or speakership election.
• Independent minority bloc: All members who did not vote for the winning or second-best nominee during the Senate presidential or speakership election.
• Independent bloc: All members who abstained from voting during the Senate presidential or speakership election.
• Not a member of any bloc: All members who have not voted during the Senate presidential or speakership election.

In the speakership election, several members abstained from voting. They, along with the members who voted for the losing candidate voted on who would be the minority leader.
