The California State Senate is a legislative chamber in California’s bicameral Legislature, and together with the California State Assembly makes up the California State Legislature. The State Senate writes, introduces, debates and votes on bills that – if approved by the entire State Legislature, become California Law. The “Upper House” of the California State Legislature is comprised of 40 members, elected by a geographic district for a four-year term, who can serve no more than two terms. Each State Senator represents approximately 931,340 Californians. The following Senator represents the City of Long Beach.
