The series contains the working copies of Senate bills\, claims (through 1925)\, petitions (until 1927)\, memorials\, fiscal reports of state agencies (1897 only)\, and resolutions. The working copy includes the bill as introduced\, any amendments made to it\, and by the latter half of the 20th century\, a copy of the final text for passed bills. The bill's progress through committees and votes is logged on the backing. The final\, signed version of the bill is filed in the Lieutenant Governor's office (cf series 4076); However a few appear here in those cases where the bill was vetoed by the Governor\, returned to the Legislature while still in session\, and the Legislature failed to override the veto.
