About the Committee

NCCUSL drafting committees consist of a chair, several NCCUSL commissioners from various states, and a reporter (usually a law professor with expertise in the subject matter). Every NCCUSL drafting committee is also assigned an ABA advisor, who represents the ABA as a whole, and frequently one or more ABA section advisors, who represent particular ABA entities. Other interested groups are also invited to send representatives, known as ‘observers’. NCCUSL drafting meetings are open to the public, everyone at a drafting meeting is encouraged to participate fully in the discussion, and all of our drafts are available on the internet (www.nccusl.org). NCCUSL drafting committees typically meet 3 times a year (two substantive drafting committee meetings and a presentation of the draft for line-by-line reading and debate at the NCCUSL Annual Meeting) for at least 2 years.
