The 'Sixtieth 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 1907 to
March 3 1909, during the last two years of the second administration of
U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt.
The apportionment of seats in this
House of Representatives was based on the
Twelfth Census of the United States in 1900. Both chambers had a
Republican majority.

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.
