# About the bills on Georgia Commons

Georgia General Assembly bills and resolutions from the 2025-2026 Regular Session: 5,480 measures, 5,470 with stored text, with actions through 2026-05-12.

## Source

Bill metadata and text come from LegiScan's public API, which mirrors the Georgia General Assembly's records; each bill links its official page at legis.ga.gov in `source_url`. Text is the latest version LegiScan holds (`text_version` says which), cleaned from the PDF or HTML the legislature publishes and otherwise unchanged.

## Summaries

Each bill with stored text carries summaries (headline, plain-language summary, what it does, who it affects, why it matters, key provisions) written by claude-sonnet-5 from that text. They sit under a heading that names them as summaries by Georgia Commons, after the text, never mixed with it. Any quote in them was checked to appear verbatim in the text; those that did not were dropped. They are not the bill and not legal advice.
