Colorado General Assembly

Colorado General Assembly The Colorado General Assembly is the legislature of the State of Colorado. The House has 65 members and the Senate 35.

The General Assembly is bicameral, composed of the Colorado House of Representatives and the Colorado Senate. Members of the House are elected to 2-year terms, and members of the Senate are elected to 4-year terms. With the notable exceptions listed below, the Colorado General Assembly operates in a manner quite similar to the United States Congress. Regular sessions are held annually and begin no

later than the second Wednesday in January. Regular sessions last no more than 120 days. Special sessions may be called at any time by the Governor or upon written request of two-thirds of the members of each house, but are infrequent. Some committees of the General Assembly work between sessions and have limited power to take action without General Assembly approval between legislative sessions.
