Curation Rationale
Bills (proposed laws) are specialized, structured documents with great public significance. Often, the language of a bill may not directly explain the potential impact of the legislation. For bills in the U.S. Congress, the Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress provides professional, non-partisan summaries of bills. These are valuable for public understanding of the bills and are serve as an essential part of the lawmaking process to understand the meaning and potential legislative impact.
This dataset collects the text of bills, some metadata, as well as the CRS summaries. In order to build more accurate ML models for bill summarization it is important to have a clean dataset, alongside the professionally-written CRS summaries. ML summarization models built on generic data are bound to produce less accurate results (sometimes creating summaries that describe the opposite of a bill's actual effect). In addition, models that attempt to summarize all bills (some of which may reach 4000 pages long) may also be inaccurate due to the current limitations of summarization on long texts.
As a result, this dataset collects bill and summary information; it provides text as a list of sections with the text and header. This could be used to create a summary of sections and then a summary of summaries.
