National Conference of State Legislatures

Need to find out when a particular state’s legislative session begins? The National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) has that information in both map and chart form. Check out the 2013 Legislative Calendar.

While you are at the NCLS site, take a look at some of the other information they offer under the Issues and Research tab. Although some of what NCLS offers is available only to legislative staff, the public can access a good amount of information. For example, NCLS offers state legislative tracking databases on a variety of topics including health, education, energy and the environment.
