The National Commission on Children found that children are removed from their families "prematurely or unnecessarily" because federal aid formulas give states "a strong financial incentive" to do so.

Statutes, Legal Codes and Legislation at your Fingertips

Here we provide links to sites containing the full-text of state constitutions, statutes (called codes or compiled laws in some states), legislation (bills, amendments, etc.), session laws (bills that have become laws), and administrative rules.

  • Portions of the statutes are available, courtesy of Tom Martin. (The link is a link to the statutes, not the Pennsylvania Code; the link to the Pennsylvania Code, which contains regulations rather than statutes, appears below.)
    • An 11/20/04 AP article said: "Tom Martin said the project has consumed hundreds upon hundreds of hours of his time, so in the past year he stopped updating it regularly."
    • Regarding the lack of complete PA statutes online, the article said: "'It's come up before, and all I can say is we periodically discuss it,' said House parliamentarian Clancy Myer. 'There are some of us in favor of it, but it's just never gotten off the ground.'"
  • Legislation, session laws For session laws, don't choose the link labeled "Session Laws"--it will take you to laws that are over 200 years old. Instead, choose the link labeled "Legislation Enacted Since 1975", which will take you to recent session laws.

Please do your homework. I'm sorry I can't be all things to all people, so...

Please don't ask me to:

  • Look things up for you to use in your case.
  • Do your legal research.
  • Give you legal advice. I am not an attorney.
  • Tell you what a law means - use a law dictionary.
  • Refer you to lawyers or to anyone else. Any information I have is already posted on the state pages.
  • Write your term paper. Education is the key to success! Do your own work.

If you find a bad link on this page, please notify the webmaster so it can be corrected.
