Nebraska is the only state in the nation that has a unicameral legislature, meaning it does not have two chambers: a house and a senate. Functions normally split between the House and Senate in bicameral legislatures are combined into a single chamber referred to as the Senate. The Lt. Governor presides over the Senate, as in many other states; however, the position normally referred to as the President Pro Tem of the Senate, which is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Senate, is referred to as the Speaker of the Legislature. Additionally, the Nebraska Senate is considered to be a non-partisan body; however, it is controlled by members of the Republican party.
