The Uniform Law Commission (ULC), also called the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws,[3] is a non-profit, American unincorporated association. Established in 1892, the ULC aims to provide U.S. states (plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) with well-researched and drafted model acts to bring clarity and stability to critical areas of statutory law across jurisdictions. The ULC promotes enactment of uniform acts in areas of state law where uniformity is desirable and practical.[4] The ULC headquarters are in Chicago, Illinois.
