About ACR

Who We Are

Founded in 1978, the Administrative Codes and Registers (ACR) Section began as an organization of administrative code and register government publishers meeting under the aegis of the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS).

Today ACR includes members involved with every aspect of administrative rules. Rule editors and reviewers, from the legislative and executive branches, and independent agencies, legal counsel, and state agency rule writers round out today’s membership.

Non-voting members of ACR include private sector rule publishers, compilers, and database editors from organizations and corporations involved with administrative rules. These members are often corporate sponsors of NASS, but also sponsor and suppport many of our activities.

We are always looking for new members. For information on how to join us, click here.
