The California State Legislature is the state legislature of the U.S. state of California. It is a bicameral body consisting of the lower house, the California State Assembly, with 80 members, and the upper house, the California State Senate, with 40 members. New legislators convene each new two-year session, to organize, in the Assembly and Senate Chambers, respectively, at noon on the first Monday in December following the election.
The Founders realized that representation was the most important aspect of republicanism. Therefore, the United States established a bicameral legislature for two reasons. First, two chambers of Congress ensure that the states are equally and adequately represented. Second, a bicameral legislature acts as a primary function of separation of powers. The American Revolution, and the years preceding, established the mindset of the Founders.
