    Catherine:

    Your question comes up periodically and I have been working on a draft Web
    site to get a handle on it.
    See http://www.llsdc.org/Cong-Bill-Sources/
    However, it still needs work and input from others.

    Good afternoon –

    Our Law Review is looking for copies of several House and Senate bills that
    were never passed into law, dating from the 1930s-1950s. We’ve been
    scratching our heads over these. We’ve checked the Congressional Record and
    any associated reports, but have struck out on all counts. We haven’t come
    up with a published source for unenacted bills from this era. Does anyone
    have other ideas? A source we missed? For law review purposes, of course,
    they need a page image of the original, but for my own edification I’d like
    to hear about any text sources as well.

    (Of course, if the answer is “It doesn’t exist” that’s also helpful!)

    Thanks in advance –
    Kate
