Which body of Georgia's government is composed of the House and Senate?

• A. Congress
• B. Council
• C. General Assembly
• D. Parliament

Answer: (C)

Georgia’s lawmaking is done by a two-chamber legislature known as the General Assembly. It consists of the House and the Senate, together forming the state’s legislative branch. Bills and budgets are proposed, debated, and voted on in both chambers, and a measure typically must pass in both before it can become law. This setup mirrors how the federal system works with Congress, but the key difference is that in Georgia the General Assembly handles state affairs rather than national ones. A council is a smaller governing body used in various local contexts, while Parliament is a term used for legislatures in other countries. So, the body made up of the House and Senate is the General Assembly.
