6 Legislative History
Legislative history research is an important tool in determining the circumstances in which a particular piece of legislation was passed, as well as the intent of the legislators. Both our library and the law library at Georgia State have guides to Georgia legislative history that will take you through the steps needed. If you run into any problems, you can always contact me or the reference desk, even after graduation. The video below takes you through the process of legislative history using the Georgia Hands Free Driving Act from 2018 as an example.
