Georgia General Assembly
The Georgia General Assembly is the state legislature of the U.S. State of Georgia. It is bicameral, consisting of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Each of the General Assembly's 236 members serve two-year terms and are directly elected by constituents of their district.〔(georgia.gov - Legislature ). georgia.gov. Retrieved June 26, 2008.〕〔(Georgia General Assembly ). georgiaencyclopedia.org. Retrieved June 26, 2008.〕 The Georgia State Constitution vests all legislative power with the General Assembly. Both houses have similar powers, though each has unique duties as well.〔 For example, the origination of appropriations bills only occurs in the House, while the Senate is tasked with confirmation of the Governor's appointments.〔
The General Assembly meets in the Georgia State Capitol in Atlanta, Georgia.
==History==
The General Assembly, which is the legislative branch of the state's government, was created in 1777 during the American Revolution—it is older than the U.S. Congress. During its existence the Assembly has moved four different times when the state capital changed its location. The first location the Assembly served in was Savannah, then Augusta and Louisville, moving from there to Milledgeville, and finally to Atlanta in 1868.〔(The Capitalization of Georgia ). sos.state.ga.us.
