The National Archives holds over 13.5 BILLION pieces of paper, and some fascinating pieces can be found in The Center for Legislative Archives. In recognition of #AmericanArchivesMonth, explore the records available within The Center: https://archives.gov/legislative. The Center for Legislative Archives preserves and makes available the historical records of the U.S. House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, and other legislative branch organizations and commissions.

The Center uses these historical records to enhance public understanding of Congress through reference and public outreach.

We'll share more about The Center and highlight some of their records throughout week!
