Title: Legislature

URL: https://le.utah.gov/

Description: The Utah Territory was created by an act of the United States Congress on 9 September 1850. The act provided the structure of the territorial government and within that structure a legislative assembly and governor would hold the legislative power in the territory. The Territorial Assembly first met on 22 September 1851 to create laws to govern the territory. The Assembly continued to meet and make laws until 1896 when the dream of statehood became a reality for Utah. In 1896, the Utah State Constitution distributed the powers of government to three departments, the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. The constitution further defined the framework of the Utah State Legislature. They met for the first time as a state governing body in January of 1896. They too, were responsible for the creation of laws. Some responsibilities grew, some were reined in, and others did not change. Since 1851, Utah has had a citizen legislature rather than a full time legislature. The session are open to the public and the public is encouraged to use their voice.
