Philippine Legislature

The Philippine Legislature was the legislative body of the Philippines from 1907 to 1935, during the American Colonial Period. It was a bicameral legislature of the Insular Government and was established by the Philippine Organic Act of 1902. The legislature's upper house was the appointed Philippine Commission, headed by the American Governor General (who also served as the executive of the Insular Government), and its lower house was the elected Philippine Assembly. The Jones Law of 1916 abolished the Philippine Commission and reorganized the Philippine Legislature as a fully elected bicameral legislature composed of a Senate and House of Representatives, precursors to today's Senate of the Philippines and House of Representatives of the Philippines.
==Under the Philippine Organic Act (1907-1916)==
The Philippine Organic Act of July 1902 stipulated that a Philippine legislature would be established after several conditions were met, such as the end of the "Philippine Insurrection". The legislature was to have an upper house consisting of the appointed Philippine Commission and a lower house, the Philippine Assembly, its members chosen by national election. The two houses would share legislative powers, although the upper house alone would pass laws relating to the Moros and other non-Christian peoples. Two Filipino Resident Commissioners were sent to Washington to attend sessions of the United States Congress. The act also extended the United States Bill of Rights to the Philippines.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Philippines: United States Rule )

The Philippine Legislature convened its first session on October 16, 1907 at the Manila Grand Opera House. Conflict between the bodies, the American-majority Commission and the all-Filipino, Nacionalista-led Assembly, were not uncommon. Such conflicts came to an end when the Jones Law created a bicameral legislature composed exclusively of Filipinos.
