What Are Session Laws?
Statutes are published in three different forms: slip laws, session laws and codes. Each form provides advantages for different research needs.
Session laws are chronological compilations of the laws passed by a particular legislature within each session. Federal Statutes are published in theStatutes at Large and the citation format is: 107 Stat. 25. The location of this public law is in volume 107 of the Statutes at Large and starts on page 25.
Statutes at Large from 1789 to 1972 (for newer federal legislation see the US-PL or US-PL-OLD database).
