Filed across 13 Congresses, from the 107th to the 119th, and most in the 110th at 2,400. 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.

Subjects are the headings the Library of Congress assigns to a bill, not labels written here, so the wording is theirs. Bills are listed newest first by their latest action. A bill carries several subjects, so it appears under each of them. Records come from Congress.gov.
