Original sentence: " The legislature is seated at the New York State Capitol in Albany.It says only that "legislative power is vested in the senate and assembly.The New York Constitution does not designate an official term for the two houses together
Edited sentence: Instead, according to the New York State Constitution, "legislative power is vested in the senate and assembly", which are always treated in the Constitution as two separate and distinct bodies, and with a unified "legislature" being nowhere mentioned.The legislature is seated at the New York State Capitol in Albany.Thus, while New York is commonly considered to have a bicameral legislature, consisting of the lower house New York State Assembly and the upper house New York Senate, this is not what the New York State Constitution actually provides.Under the New York State Constitution, there is no such thing as the "New York State Legislature"
