The Philippine Legislature was the legislative body of the Philippines from 1907 to 1935, during the American Colonial Period. It was a bicameral legislature of the Insular Government and was established by the Philippine Organic Act of 1902. The legislature's upper house was the appointed Philippine Commission, headed by the American Governor General (who also served as the executive), and its lower house was the elected Philippine Assembly. The Jones Law of 1916 abolished the Philippine Commission and reorganized the Philippine Legislature as a fully elected bicameral legislature composed of a Senate and House of Representatives, precursors to today's Philippine Senate and Philippine House of Representatives.
