The Citizens Assembly of Deseret, often shortened to the Assembly, is the unicameral legislature of the federal government of Deseret. The Assembly was created after the reorganizing of the legislative branch in 2022, during which Congress was consolidated into a single chamber with more explicit powers with the goal of creating a more unified, streamlined, and representative government.
The Assembly is unique in that the citizens of Deseret officially introduce and vote on legislation, with the Assembly itself taking care of specific issues outlined in the Constitution and as directed by the President. The Assembly led by the Speaker of the Assembly and is composed of multiple political parties.
