Citizen legislature : ウィキペディア英語版 | Citizen legislature In the United States, a citizen legislature is one made up primarily of citizens who have a full-time occupation besides being a legislator. James Madison wrote in Federalist No. 62 that "It is not possible that an assembly of men called for the most part from pursuits of a private nature, continued in appointment for a short time, and led by no permanent motive to devote intervals of public occupation to a study of the laws, the affairs, and the comprehensive interests of their country, should, if left wholly to themselves, escape a variety of important errors in the exercise of their legislative trust."〔()〕 Legislatures considered to be citizen legislatures include Idaho,〔(Idaho State Legislature - Idaho's Citizen Legislature )〕 New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon,〔(Oregon State Legislature )〕 Utah,〔(Utah Constitution - Article VI, Section 16 - Duration of sessions. )〕 and Wyoming.〔(Citizen's Guide to the Legislature )〕 Many states, by contrast, have a professional legislature. ==See also==
