Public policy doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Rather than falling out of a coconut tree, each bill exists in the context of all that came before it. That’s why, for policy professionals, looking at bills from past sessions and historical legislative data is key.

But navigating through piles of legislative documents can be daunting, especially when you need to access bills from past sessions.

Thankfully, Plural makes it easier than ever to cut through the complexity and zero in on exactly what you need from past sessions.

By default, Plural searches within the current session, or the most recent one if there’s no active session. But what if you need to go back further? Let’s dive into how you can harness Plural’s advanced search options to explore bills from previous sessions.
