The Separatist Parliament, also known as the Separatist Senate or the Separatist Congress, was the civilian legislature that governed the Confederacy of Independent Systems, representing thousands of its member worlds during the Clone Wars. When Count Dooku founded the Confederacy in 24 BBY, the swathes of sectors and star systems seceding from the Galactic Republic formed their own congressional assembly to oversee the Separatist state. A number of the appointed delegates, having served as members of the Galactic Senate prior to their secession, continued to represent their constituents in the Confederacy. Once the Confederacy was dissolved in 19 BBY, several of the Congress Members stayed on Raxus until they heard about the New Confederacy of Independent Systems and in 18 BBY, formed the New Separatist Parliament.

Bec Lawise[]
Mina Bonteri[]
Voe Atell[]
Voe Atell is a senator affiliated with the Corporate Alliance, spoke for the Commerce Guild at times in the Separatist Parliament. During the debate over Mina Bonteri's bill to initiate diplomatic negotiations with the Republic, Atell took a stand against her pro-peace colleague, going so far as to swear that the Corporate Alliance would never permit a Parliament decision to end the war. Some of her fellow delegates took umbrage at her remarks, with Kerch Kushi likening her Corporate Alliance ties to the seats that such megacorporations held in the Republic Senate. Atell voted against the bill for peace, though she ended up being in the outvoted.
Kerch Kushi[]
Kerch Kushi is a male senator of the Separatist Parliament. Kushi supported the democracy and was opposed to Senator Voe Atell's opinions, stating that the corporations did not rule them. He still doesn't get along well with Voe Atell.
