The 427th Congress refers to a hypothetical future session of the United States Congress, as the current Congress is the 118th. Congress is divided into two chambers: the House of Representatives and the Senate. Each Congress lasts for two years, during which lawmakers propose, debate, and vote on legislation. The 427th Congress would follow the 426th, which would be held in the 2050s. Members of the House serve two-year terms, while Senators serve six-year terms. The composition and political dynamics of the 427th Congress would depend on the elections leading up to that session.
