Many states have responded to this by instituting or retaining multicameral legislatures, in which all houses must pass legislation in the same form. The responsible house is usually the most powerful and the only house with the actual power to terminate the government. Other houses, though, can often veto or at least delay controversial bills, perhaps until the government's performance can be judged by the electorate.
This has led to several states creating or maintaining bicameral legislatures, where all legislative branches must agree on legislation in identical form. The dominant chamber typically holds the most power and authority to dissolve the government. Other chambers can frequently veto or delay contentious bills, possibly until the government's performance is evaluated by the electorate.
