Wisconsin legislative sessions are referred to by the
odd-numbered year in which the session starts. All bills introduced are named
for the odd-numbered year of the legislative session regardless of whether they
are introduced in an odd or even-numbered year, except for special session
bills, which include the month the special session began in the title -- January
2002 Special Session Senate Bill 1, for example. There are no acts identified by
an even-numbered year even though they may have passed in an even-numbered
year.
Other available information on legislative proposals includes:
Each Wisconsin bill and resolution has a history
that lists the dates and legislative actions affecting the proposal from its
introduction to final disposition and the associated page numbers for the house
journals.
