The North Carolina General Assembly of 2005–06 was the legislature that was elected on November 2, 2004, by voters in North Carolina. Members of the House of Representatives and Senate met in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 2005 and 2006. These were the first elections for the state legislature under a new redistricting plan approved in 2003. This General Assembly will perhaps be best remembered as the assembly that approved North Carolina's first state lottery. It also approved new ethics laws for government officials and increased the state's minimum wage.

House of Representatives

The North Carolina State House, during the 2005–06 session, consisted of 63 Democrats and 57 Republicans. Several Republicans, Richard T. Morgan most prominent among them, continued to support the Democratic majority on some issues, as they had in the previous legislature (when the house was evenly divided by party).
