Summary:     This series contains the records of the Florida House of Representatives committees. The records consist of bill files, meetings files, correspondence files, and subject files. Files may contain materials such as committee staff analyses of bills, memoranda, and other supporting documents such as vote sheets, attendance sheets, appearance cards, reports, newspaper clippings, and correspondence.

    Although the earliest extant committee materials date from 1969, many committees did not begin maintaining records in an organized manner until the mid-1970s. The quantity and quality of material may vary from committee to committee and by time frame. By the late 1980s, most committees had standardized their file format.
    For details, see descriptions under individual House committees.
