Where does the Georgia General Assembly derive its power to produce legislation?

the Georgia Constitution
the U.S. Constitution
o the governor
the speaker of the house

Answer 1

The Georgia General Assembly derives its power to produce legislation from the Georgia Constitution.

Explanation:

• Though the United States Constitution has bestowed upon each state its own authority to prepare and implement its own legislation that sits well within the framework of the federal constitution, it does not itself directly clarify much about the power of the state legislatures to prepare and implement legislation.

• For the 'Georgia General Assembly', it is the Georgia Constitution that sets the conduct to produce legislation.
