# Convert GPO Fdsys STATUTE metadata into bill files.
#
# GPO has the Statutes at Large from 1951 (the 65th
# volume, 82nd Congress) to the present, with metadata
# at the level of the law.
#
# The bill files have sort of made up action entries
# since we don't know the legislative history of the bill.
# We also assume all bills are enacted by being signed
# by the President for the sake of outputting status
# information.
#
# First download the Statutes at Large from GPO:
#
# ./run fdsys --collections=STATUTE --store=mods
#
# Then run this script:
#
# ./run statutes
# Processes all downloaded statutes files and saves
# bill files (e.g. data/82/bills/hr/hr1/data.json).
#
# ./run statutes --volume=65
# ./run statutes --volumes=65-86
# ./run statutes --year=1951
# ./run statutes --years=1951-1972
# Processes just the indicated volume or range of volumes.
# Starting with the 93rd Congress (1973-1974, corresponding
# to volume 78 of the Statutes of Large), we have bill
# data from THOMAS. Be careful not to overwrite those files.
