Great North US Federal Laws Text Corpus

Best quality structured + text corpus from the United States Code, CFR, and high-value US federal legal/policy documents.

This project turns the full (or as much as bulk sources allow) body of US federal law into training-ready data for sovereign AI.

Sources (best quality)

  • United States Code (official XML via House OLRC USLM format) - individual titles for reliability (see fetch.py for @release-point zips).
  • Code of Federal Regulations (eCFR / govinfo bulk XML) - regulatory law.
  • High-value supplemental documents (major statutes, executive orders, congressional reports, etc.) via text extraction for the hybrid path (see greatnorth-gov-text-corpus).

Output

Training JSONL with clean text per section + rich metadata (citation, title, jurisdiction, date, source, source_url, retrieved_at, language, doc_type, optional chunk_index).

Designed for pretraining legal/governance models and statistical analysis of US law.

This Build (CFR focus)

  • 402,998 training records (section- and chunk-level).
  • ~1.49 GB JSONL.
  • ~737 MB raw official eCFR XML (titles 1-3,5-8,10,12-16,18-26,28-29,31-34,36,38,40-50 and others; full list in data/raw/us_laws_manifest.json).
  • US Code XML zips: correct download URLs in code (uscode.house.gov timed out in build env; rerun fetch when reachable to add tens/hundreds of k more USLM records from titles 1,2,3,5,10,15,18,21,28,31,42,44,49,50 etc.).

All text is from official government structured XML (no OCR/PDF synthesis). Provenance preserved for every record. Public domain / U.S. Government works.

Reproducibility

Windows/PowerShell (recommended):

cd greatnorth-us-laws-corpus
$env:PYTHONPATH="src"
python -m pip install -e . --quiet
python -m greatnorth_us_laws_corpus.cli fetch
python -m greatnorth_us_laws_corpus.cli normalize
# Upload (token via env only - never paste literal here)
$env:HF_TOKEN=$env:HF_TOKEN python -m greatnorth_us_laws_corpus.cli upload --delete-after-upload

Raw bulk + processed training data both preserved until successful upload + delete (keeps disk clean for large legal text).
