Legislative Congress Inventory

The Inventory can be used to track, review and analyze evidence-based legislation to serve as a roadmap for the development of new bills or to inform reintroduction of existing legislation.

To search for relevant legislation, filter by Congress session, Sponsor, Cosponsor, Committee, Issue Area, and/or Evidence Provision.

Each bill shows up to three badges indicating its related evidence provision: Includes an Evidence Definition, Defines and Prioritizes Evidence, and Builds Evidence.

Click the legislation to view additional information, such as a summary, sponsorship and information about how it advances evidence.
