A Member of Congress (also known as Congressman, Congresswoman or Congressperson) is term used for a politician who is a member of a congress.[1] In countries with a parliament rather than a congress, the term Member of Parliament (MP) is often used instead.
In the United States, the term technically applies to members of both the upper house Senate and the lower House of Representatives. "Congress" technically refers to both houses. In common practice, the term 'Member of Congress' is used to refer to members of the House of Representatives, and "Senator" refers to members of the Senate.
