Search

Full text search is available for all documents. Click Here.
You may also search by bill or resolution number. For example, entering “050337” in the search bar will return Bill No. 050337. You may also use an asterisk (*) as a “wild card” to search bill or resolution numbers. For example, searching for 05033* will return item numbers 050330 through 050339, and searching for “0503*” will return items numbers 050300 through 050399 (as well as any other matters that refer to those item numbers).
Once your search results are displayed, you will be able to sort the results by clicking at the top of any column displayed. Clicking any displayed item will open a new window with detailed legislative history and full text.
