Legislation may originate in either the House or the Senate but may be amended, rejected, or ignored by the other body. In 2018, all 99 seats in the House were up for election or re-election.

Districts Each district is comprised of approximately 64,102 residents. The house goes through a redistricting process every 10 years. To qualify for election to the House, one must be 21 years old, a U.S. citizen, a state resident for three years, and a resident of the county in which elected for one year immediately preceding the election.

The House has different law-making powers that are not the same as the Senate's and are more defined than the Senate's. The power to impeach proceeding's against public officials is another power of the House. These officials are then brought in front of the Senate for trial. In order to prosecute the case before the Senate, the House elects three members to help with this process.
