Acts of Congress, the daily record of debates, and the federal regulations are printed and posted by this office. The bound regulations themselves are the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).
What It Is Responsible For
- The statutes. Public laws and the compiled code of federal statutes.
- The daily record. The record of congressional debate and the daily government journal.
- Free digital copies. The same publications are posted so a reader does not have to buy a bound volume.
