THOMAS



Unrestricted Access

Description

THOMAS was launched at the beginning of the 104th Congress in January of 1995, when the leadership of the 104th Congress directed the Library of Congress to make federal legislative information freely available to the public. Since that time THOMAS has expanded the scope of its offerings to include bills and resolutions, committee reports, the Congressional Record, Presidential nominations, treaties, and other related information including summary and status of legislation. THOMAS also provides links to House and Senate committee pages, to the United States Code, and to Library of Congress resources.
