The Legislative Committee of the Federal Council, also known as the Legislative Council, and as the All-Union Congress of State Legislatures, is the Federal Council configuration pertaining to the legislative Powers of the States. This configuration is composed of the Members of the eighteen State Legislatures, and is co-chaired by the President of the United States Senate (first chair) and the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives (second/deputy chair). The All-Union Congress of State Legislatures may meet either electronically (via teleconference) or at various convention centers throughout the United States, or in the Fœderal Capital Territory at the purpose-built XXXX Building. This particular configuration of the United States Federal Council, one of the oldest, was established by the Provisional Federal Council of the United States on 3 July 1719 with the enactment of Federal Council Ordinance № 1719/13.
