2,235 bills on this subject

Filed across 4 Congresses, from the 107th to the 110th, and most in the 110th at 579. A subject is a heading the Library of Congress assigns to a bill, and a bill usually carries several, so these are the bills that touch this subject rather than the bills only about it.
