State Legislative Policy Estimates

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: We use a machine learning model based on the "transformer" architecture and contextual word-piece embeddings to code the universe of bills introduced in the states since 2009 (about 1.36 million bills) into 28 policy areas. The output is based on the Gray and Lowery dictionary of state policy topics. Please cite: Dee, Ethan and Garlick, Alex (forthcoming).
