119th Congress · H.R. 1234 · Passed Origin

To direct the Librarian of Congress to promote the more cost-effective, efficient, and expanded availability of the Annotated Constitution and pocket-part supplements by replacing the hardbound versions with digital versions.

This bill replaces the requirement for the Library of Congress to prepare hardbound versions of the Constitution Annotated and supplements with a requirement for the Library to instead prepare digital versions and publish them online. The new requirement applies to the supplement after the Supreme Court term beginning October 2025 and all subsequent editions.
