The 138th General Assembly of the U.S. state of Georgia convened its first session on January 7, 1985, at the Georgia State Capitol in Atlanta. The 138th Georgia General Assembly succeeded the 137th and served as the precedent for the 139th General Assembly in 1987.
It was the first General Assembly in which the minimum number of House seats was set at 180 per the Georgia State Constitution of 1983.
<sup>*</sup>Active political parties in Georgia are not limited to the Democratic and Republican parties. Libertarians, and occasionally others, run candidates in elections. However, for the 1985-86 session of the General Assembly, only the two major parties were successful in electing legislators to office.
