The Division of Legislative Automated Systems (DLAS) offers two fee-based legislative information services to customers seeking timely and complete information regarding the activities of the Virginia General Assembly. These services are Lobbyist-in-a-Box Subscription Service and the Legislative Publication Subscription Service.

LEGISLATIVE INFORMATION SYSTEM - LOBBYIST-IN-A-BOX SERVICE

The Legislative Information System (LIS) is a free internet service that provides the public with information on the work of committees and the General Assembly during each legislative session. The public may also obtain the status of specific bills or resolutions, lists of legislation by various categories, and profiles of members of the General Assembly.

Lobbyist-In-A-Box (LIAB) is a fee-based bill tracking service specifically designed for lobbyists and special interest groups. Users may create multiple profiles of bills and receive email notification when changes occur. A free version of LIAB is also available for tracking five bills or less.

Free Service:

You may track up to 5 bills in one Lobbyist-In-A-Box "profile" without charge. To register you'll need to fill in your desired user ID and password, your first and last name, and your email address.

Fee-based Registration:

A subscription to Lobbyist-In-A-Box offers the ability to create multiple profiles, each containing bill lists and notification options. Email notification triggers an email when bills are sponsored by a member of the General Assembly, referred to a House or Senate Committee or contain specific key word(s), phrases, or Code section(s). The cost of this service is $400 for state agencies and $600 for all other subscribers.
