The Idaho Legislature is the state legislature of the U.S. state of Idaho. It consists of the upper Idaho Senate and the lower Idaho House of Representatives. The Idaho Senate contains 35 Senators, who are elected from 35 districts. The Idaho House of Representatives consists of 70 Representatives, who are elected from the same 35 districts, with 2 being elected from each constituency. The crossing of upper and lower house districts into a single constituency is found in only a handful of other state legislatures, such as in the Oregon Legislative Assembly, the Washington State Legislature, and the Arizona Legislature. As of 2000, each legislative district in the state of Idaho had approximately 37,000 residents.

The 1st Regular Session of 2007 sees Republicans controlling both chambers. The 59th Idaho Senate consists of 28 Republicans and 7 Democrats, with the Idaho House of Representatives to consist of 51 Republicans and 19 Democrats.

The Idaho Legislature convenes at the Idaho State Capitol in downtown Boise. The Legislature meets annually from January until mid-March, although sessions have been known to last into May. The Governor of Idaho may also call special sessions at any time. The Idaho Capitol is open to the public during afternoon hours on most weekdays.
