2017  Congressional  Debate Information & Schedule

Legislation: Each participating school may submit up to two bills and/or resolutions by 5:00 p.m. CST, November 20, 2017 to blakelegislation@gmail.com, using the official templates formatted per NFL regulations (see http://congressionaldebate.org). Tournament staff will review legislation for pertinent, controversial and researchable issues, and post a docket to this page by December 3, 2017 (sooner if possible). Legislation characterized by seriousness of purpose is most likely to be selected, and to that end, delegates are reminded that bills allow for deeper debate, since they establish the mechanisms by which a proposed law will be enacted.
