The Senate of the Republic of Île d'Émeraude (Gaullican: Sénat de la République de l’Île d’Émeraude), (Emeraudian Creole: Senatè Repiblik de Zile Émeraude) is the unicameral legislature of the Republic of Île d'Émeraude. It is the supreme authority on legislation, which is to be passed by a simple majority and signed into law by the President. In addition, it must also confirm Presidential appointments to positions in his/her Cabinet or the Supreme Court. The Senate also holds the power to impeach the President and remove him/her and their Cabinet from power and put the Vice President into the Presidency.

While the legislature holds significant power, it often takes a backseat in national politics.
