The 117th Us Congress is the current meeting of the legislative branch of the United States federal authorities, composed of the U.S. Senate and the U.Due south. Firm of Representatives. It convened in Washington, D.C., on Jan 3, 2021, during the final weeks of Donald Trump's presidency, and will terminate on January 3, 2023.

The 2020 elections decided control of both chambers. In the House of Representatives, the Democratic Party retained their majority, albeit reduced from the 116th Congress. It is similar in size to the majority held past the Republican Party during the 83rd Congress (1953–1955).

In the Senate, Republicans held the majority at the offset. However, on January twenty, 2021, three new Democratic senators (Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock of Georgia and Alex Padilla of California) were sworn in, resulting in 50 seats held by Republicans, 48 seats held by Democrats, and two held by independents who caucus with the Democrats. Finer, this created a 50–l divide, which had not occurred since the 107th Congress in 2001. This was only the third time in U.South. history that the Senate has been evenly split, the first being in the 47th Congress (1881–1883).[i]

The new senators were sworn into office by Vice President Kamala Harris just hours after her inauguration. With Harris now serving as the tie breaker in her constitutional function as President of the Senate, Democrats gained control of the Senate, and thereby full control of Congress for the first time since the 111th Congress ended in 2011. Additionally, with the inauguration of Joe Biden as president that same day, Democrats assumed command of the executive co-operative as well, attaining an overall federal government trifecta, too for the outset time since the 111th Congress.
