How to Search for Bills

Bill Text and Status: Search a bill number (ex. AB 14) to view a bill's text, status, and other relevant information.

Bill Searching: If you don't know the bill number of the legislation you are interested in, you can search by key word or code section number. The computer will return a list of all bills that contain the key word you specify. For example, if you specified "housing", you would get a list of all current bills that contain "housing" in the text.
