A state senate is the upper deliberative body, or chamber, in states with a bicameral legislature. A state senate normally has fewer members — usually one-half to one-third as many members — as a state assembly or state house of representatives.

A state senator is a member of a state's Senate. In 1963, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that state legislatures must apportion seats in both houses according to population.
