About Committee Prints

Committee prints can be research studies, compilations of materials or statutes, background information, or working drafts of a bill.   Not all  committee prints are published or distributed.  Some may be reissued as a House or Senate Document or Report or published in the Congressional Record.  Although not significant in determining legislative intent, they can provide valuable and hard to find information for the researcher.
