House registers of Senate bills, 1873-[ongoing].

House registers of Senate bills are a record of Senate bills appearing before the House within a particular session, and contain the House bill number, bill title, bill description, name of the House member presenting the Senate bill that has passed the Senate, and what action was taken in the House concerning the bill. If the bill was passed, the words "signed" or "enrolled and signed" will appear below the bill description. Beginning ca.1950 an index was placed within each House register of Senate bills, listing in alphabetical order the names of the members of the House and the bill numbers of the bills that they will be presenting before the House in that session. The action taken on each bill is posted almost daily by register clerks, and this information is recorded below each bill description. Beginning ca.1975, if a bill passed both the Senate and the House, an act number would be assigned and recorded in red ink at the top of the page.
