Question 31 of 128
Who does a U.S. senator represent?
Official USCIS answers
- Citizens of their state
- People of their state
Why this is the answer
Each state elects two U.S. senators. A senator speaks and works for the people of that state in Congress, not for another state or the whole country.
💡 Memory tip: Senator = your state's people.
