NEED ACCESS TO THE BILLS THAT HAVE BECOME LAW?

Each approved bill is assigned a "session law chapter number" by the Secretary of State. If you need a list of these "session laws" or the actual text of the bills, or BOTH, you can get this information from our LAWS system. Here's how:

-- To access a report listing chapter numbers, along with each chapter number's corresponding bill number and effective date, click Session Law List. You can then download and print this list if you wish.

-- To download the WP 5.1 text for a specific chapter number, click Session Law Chapter Number Document List to display the chapter number list . Highlight a chapter number and then download it for viewing or printing. Session law chapter number text is actually the text of the enrolled bill assigned to that chapter number.
