Padme Amidala is now the Senator from the planet Naboo, filling the political role previously held by Palpatine. Amidala's senatorial term began when her reign as Queen ended.
When her term ended, Amidala was constitutionally obligated to step down as Queen, though the public would have easily backed an amendment allowing her to serve longer.
Still passionate about public office, Amidala served Naboo and the new Queen as Senator, taking the position once occupied by Palpatine. http://www.starwarsnet.co.uk/amidala.htm
