SENATE INDEXING OFFICE

The Senate Indexing Office makes available for quick reference a subject index of all bills introduced on the floor of the Senate.

This index includes bill status and history, a list of study bills under their respective committees, and a list of enrolled bills. Information is updated daily during the legislative session through the legislative computer system. A touch screen computer terminal is located in the Senate lounge. Microfiche viewers, printed copies and computer terminals are located throughout the Capitol to provide easy access of this information to the public.

During the interim between legislative sessions, the Indexing Office prepares the general index for publication. Information for the general index is gathered from the daily journals and printed at the end of the bound Senate Journal. The index to the Senate Journals provides information on the final status of Senate files in both chambers, subject index of all bills introduced, subject index of all bills passed, index of all resolutions, and a listing of all companion bills. It is printed during the interim and is made available at the beginning of each legislative session.
