Legislative Power
Legislative power refers to the authority to create, amend, and repeal laws within a government. This power is typically vested in a legislative body, such as a parliament or congress, which consists of elected representatives. These representatives debate proposed laws, known as bills, and vote on their approval or rejection.
In many democratic systems, legislative power is divided into two chambers, often called the upper house and lower house. This structure allows for a system of checks and balances, ensuring that no single group has complete control over the law-making process.
