California legislative history research is comprised primarily of separate research sources, e.g., governor files, committee files, bill versions, author's files, partisan caucus files, etc. The availability of the research sources varies widely, depending on the year of enactment and other factors. Our Online Store does not offer to provide all publically available sources of legislative history for each bill; although, we are happy to report that in many instances it does. If you require such certainty up front, consider our Custom or Core Reports. 

See our Terms & Conditions for other important disclosures about our Online Store reports.

1943-2010
Every regular session California bill that became law from 1943 through 2010 is covered in this part of our unique, groundbreaking database. No other service offers this comprehensive coverage. While the number of available files varies per bill, we provide one or more sources of legislative history for every bill that passed.

2011-Current
Selected, regular session California bills that became law from 2011 to current are covered in this part of our database. Because it consists of files from our precompiled legislative histories, multiple files are provided for each bill. If your bill is not found, consider our Custom or Core reports, or contact us.

Report Fees & Features
