The Kentucky House of Representatives is the lower house of the Kentucky Full general Assembly. It is composed of 100 Representatives elected from single-member districts throughout the Commonwealth. Not more than two counties can be joined to grade a House district, except when necessary to preserve the principle of equal representation.^[1] Representatives are elected to two-year terms with no term limits. The Kentucky House of Representatives convenes at the State Capitol in Frankfort.

History [edit]

The first coming together of the Kentucky House of Representatives was in Lexington, Kentucky, in 1792, presently later on statehood. During the beginning legislative session, legislators chose Frankfort, Kentucky to be the permanent state majuscule.

After women gained suffrage in Kentucky, Mary Elliott Flanery was elected as the get-go female member of the Kentucky House of Representative. She took her seat in January 1922, and was the first woman elected to a Southern state legislature.^[two]

In 2017, the Republican Party became the majority political party in the House.^{[3] [iv]}

Leadership [edit]

The Speaker of the Kentucky Firm of Representatives is the principal presiding officeholder of the Kentucky Business firm. The Speaker's official duties include maintaining order in the Firm, recognizing members during debate, appointing committee chairs and determining the limerick of committees, and determining which committee has jurisdiction over which nib. Traditionally, the Speaker has as well served as Chair of the Rules Commission and the Committee on Committees.

In add-on to the Speaker and Speaker pro tem, each political party caucus elects a floor leader, a whip, and conclave chair.
