Whether you’re an attorney, judge, law student or just a general observer, keeping abreast of the latest in law and society can help you stay informed about developments that could affect your practice.
A bill is a proposal for a law submitted to the legislature for consideration. When a bill passes, it becomes the law. A bill is often accompanied by a committee report, which provides an overview of the bill’s purpose and scope, and explains why the committee recommends its approval. In addition to explaining the bill’s purpose and scope, a committee report contains a detailed section-by-section analysis that sets forth precisely what the legislation does. A committee report is an invaluable source of information to the courts, executive departments and the public about a law’s purpose and meaning.
