The 115th United States Congress was a meeting of the legislative branch of the United states of america federal government, composed of the Senate and the Business firm of Representatives. Information technology met in Washington, D.C., from January iii, 2017, to January iii, 2019, during the final weeks of Barack Obama'due south presidency and the first 2 years of Donald Trump's presidency. The seats in the House were apportioned based on the 2010 Usa Demography.^[1]

The Republican Party retained their majorities in both the Firm and the Senate, and with Donald Trump beingness sworn in as President on Jan 20, 2017, this gave the Republicans an overall federal government trifecta for the first time since the 109th Congress in 2005.

Several political scientists described the legislative accomplishments of this Congress equally modest, because that both Congress and the presidency were under unified Republican Party control.^{[2] [3] [4] [v]} According to a contemporary study, "House and Senate GOP majorities struggled to legislate: GOP fissures and the president oftentimes undermined the Republican agenda. Virtually notably, clashes within and betwixt the two parties (for example, on healthcare issues) strained old ways of doing business concern."^[3]
