The Wingian Congress, also known constitutionally as the House of Representatives of the United States of Wings, is the unicameral body with federal legislative power over the United States of Wings. The designated meeting place of the Congress is Capital Hill in Wingsington, D.C., however in reality the legislature meets over the messaging platform, Skype. All elected members are part of the Republiapache Party of Wings, and as such the party dominates over law-making in the nation.

The Wingian Congress currently has only one member, however at the conclusion of the January 2017 elections will see an expansion to two seats, and once the state of Flyrida reaches the population threshold the chamber will see another expansion to three representatives.
