Legislative Assembly (various regions)

A Legislative Assembly is a regional governing body responsible for making laws and decisions within a specific area, such as a state or province. Members are elected by local residents and represent their interests in the legislative process. The assembly debates, amends, and approves policies, budgets, and laws that impact daily life—like education, healthcare, and transportation. Its structure and powers vary by region, but overall, it functions as the primary authority for regional legislative governance, ensuring local needs and concerns are addressed within the framework of national or federal law.
