The National Assembly (French: Assemblée nationale, Haitian Creole: Asanble Nasyonal) consists of the bicameral legislature of the Republic of Haiti, consisting of the upper house as the Senate (Sénat) and the lower house as the Chamber of Deputies (Chambre des Députés).[A88] Both assemblies conduct legislative sessions at the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince.[A103]
Since 10 January 2023, every seat in each house is vacant as elections have been repeatedly delayed and the final elected legislators' terms expired on January 10.[1]. Many sources call Haiti an anarchy[2][3] as there have only been two elections in 19 years and the country, which has been running by Presidential decree since 2023 [4], however, since there is a lack of a President, and only a Transitional Presidential Council exists, with limited power, many consider Haiti to be an anarchy with no rule of law.
Additionally, many outlets consider Jimmy Chérizier[5] to be the most powerful man in the country, a gang leader who led the 2024 Haitian jailbreak which resulted in the resignation of the powerless Prime Minister and total control of the nation's capital in his gangs hands.
