State Legislatures
Focus question: what are the three principals functions of legislatures?
Well, the three principals functions of legislatures are:-
1- Policymaker:
Which includes enacting laws and allocating funds. Legislatures alone do not have control of the state policymaking. but they are the dominant policymaking institutions in state government.
2- Representation:
Legislatures are expected to speak for their people in the legislative chamber and also they act as their constituents’ facilitators in the state government.
3- Oversight:
Concerned that the law they passed in addition to the funds they allocated frequently did not produce the intended effect. Their role takes legislatures into the administrative realm.
