-The '''House of Representatives of the Philippines''' (Filipino: ''Kapulungan ng mga Kinatawan ng Pilipinas'') is the lower chamber of the Congress of the Philippines. The Senate is the upper chamber. The House is often informally called the ''Congress''. Members of the house are called Congressmen (''mga kinatawan or mga konggresista'') and their title is Representative. Congressmen are elected to a three-year term, and can be reelected to a maximum of consecutive three terms. A congressman may be a district representative, which represents a particular geographical area. There are 212 legislative districts in the country, each composed of about 250,000 people. In addition, there are Sectoral Representatives elected through the party-list system who constitute not more than twenty percent of the total number of Representatives.
-The official headquarters of the House of Representatives is at the ''Batasang Pambansa'' (literally, national legislature) located at the Constitution Hill in Quezon City in Metro Manila. The building is often simply called Batasan.
