The Connecticut State Government is the governing body of the state of Connecticut, located in the northeastern United States. It operates under a constitution and consists of three branches: the executive, legislative, and judicial. The executive branch is led by the Governor, who is responsible for enforcing state laws, while the legislative branch is made up of the Connecticut General Assembly, which creates laws. The judicial branch interprets these laws through a system of courts. The Connecticut General Assembly is a bicameral legislature, meaning it has two chambers: the House of Representatives and the Senate. Members of the House serve two-year terms, while Senators serve four-year terms. The state government also includes various agencies and departments that manage public services, such as education, transportation, and health.
