By Michelle Buhalo •  June 27, 2013

Legislative history material may be useful in interpreting federal laws, but it can be difficult to compile documents across a broad range of sources. Check out our Federal Legislative History Resource Guide for tips before you begin! Tabs provide information on locating bills & resolutions, codified statutes & acts, hearings, reports, prints & documents, CRS reports, debates & votes, and presidential messages & signing statements. This guide explains resources that can be found in print or electronically through your Jenkins membership or for free online.

For Pennsylvania legislative histories, check out Pennsylvania Legislative History - A How To Guide.
