Law New is a website that provides an easy way to search for laws (known as bills) proposed by members of Congress. Bills may be a new idea or they can be changes to existing laws. A bill can be introduced by a member of Congress at any time, or it can be recommended to the House or Senate by people or by citizen groups. If a committee approves a bill, the staff writes a report that describes the purpose and scope of the law, lists all amendments and explanations of them, and gives a section-by-section analysis of what the law is intended to accomplish.
