The Confederate States of America follows the exact same model of Congress that the US Constitution contains such as creating two houses of congress(House of Representatives & Senate), term lengths(2yrs for representatives, 6yrs for senators),representatives based on population & two senators for each state, how they are to be elected(representatives elected by direct popular vote, senators elected according to the state legislature either by the legislature themselves,electoral college,or direct popular vote.),same qualifications, & the enumerated powers of Congress.
All legislative power is delegated to congress with few & defined powers. There are NO implied powers, only enumerated & delegated powers. All bills for raising revenue must originate in the House of Representatives. Congress has the power to override any legislation vetoed by the president by 2/3 majority.
Congress shall not delegate any of its authority to any other branch of government or private organization.
