(Redirected from Sixty-fourth United States Congress)
The 'Sixty-fourth United States Congress' was a meeting of the legislative branch of the
United States federal government, comprised of the
United States Senate and the
United States House of Representatives. It met in
Washington, DC from
March 4,
1915 to
March 3,
1917, during the last two years of the first administration of
U.S. President Woodrow Wilson.
The apportionment of seats in this

Democratic majority.

Members
Senate

Map showing Senate party membership at the start of the 64th Congress. Red states are represented by two Republicans and blue by two Democrats. Purple states are represented by one senator from each party.
At this time, most Senators were elected by the state legislatures every two years, with one-third beginning new six year terms with each Congress. A few senators were elected directly by the residents of the state.
House of Representatives
The names of members of the House of Representatives elected statewide on the
general ticket or otherwise ''at-large,'' are preceded by an "A/L," and the names of those elected from districts, whether plural or single member, are preceded by their district numbers.
Many of the congressional district numbers are linked to articles describing the district itself. Since the boundaries of the districts have changed often and substantially, the linked article may only describe the district as it exists today, and not as it was at the time of this Congress.
