Only 4 of 192 bill-years since FY2011 were stand-alone acts

Source. Public laws and BILLSTATUS records on govinfo.gov; CRS RL32473

Method and data

Method. FY2011 Defense is stand-alone because Division A of P.L. 112-10 is the only regular text in the act; its Division B is a full-year CR for the other 11 bills. RL32473 Table 3 counts all 12 FY2011 bills as full-year CR, so Exhibit 64, which follows RL32473 through FY2016, differs by that one bill. Rows are ordered by years enacted stand-alone, then alphabetically. FY2027 rows (pending) are in the CSV but not plotted.
