Informal rules of state legislature

Step-by-step explanation:

The political scientists Lee Bernick and Charles Wiggins formulated a set of legislative rules which a legislature of a legislative should not do during his/her term.

These informal rules are those which govern the legislators and the legislative bodies. They have listed the rules based on certain things which a legislator should not do during his period. Like:

  • A legislator should not be vocal about representing a specific interest group or act as a spokesperson of that group
  • A legislator should not allow the real purpose of a bill to be known too early to get it passes early or to the public to gain any public acceptance or popularity without final voting or roll call
  • A legislator should not take an early position on whether or not a bill should be passed and decide or judge things on only one’s self
  • A legislator should not introduce too many bills in the legislative. A legislator must limit the number of bills to reduce over piling of bills and concentrate more on priorities of the state
