The chart counts verified records as they were dated, and the table by date gives the same counts by day.\n\nSome records carry a date from which they apply. That date comes from the source, not from us, and a date in the future means the rule is published but not yet in force. Bills are tracked separately from law: a bill creates no obligation, and its stage is recorded as of the date retrieved.\n\nEach entry is dated by the day we retrieved its source, which is the day a person last confirmed the record against the primary document. It is not the date the rule changed. When a source changes, the record is re-verified and its date moves forward.\n\nA record that is not yet published has no verified source. It is listed with the reason instead of a value, and it leaves that list the day a primary source is found. Subscribe to the feed to see entries as they are dated.\n\nSubscribe to this page as an RSS feed. The feed lists the same entries, newest first, with the source address of each."
