America DECODED
America's Laws Are the People's Public Property
The State Decoded software provides you with a people-friendly way to access your local, state, and federal legal code. Nothing should stand between you and accessing the law.
Know your rights without having to pay hefty charges or spend countless hours sifting through giant stacks of outdated books at the public library.
Share what you find with the world.
Identify useless or harmful laws in your city, state, and country, and contact your elected officials about them by commenting directly on the sections that need to be changed.
Develop useful applications for the law.
