Documents originate from congressional committees or the entire House or Senate. They can contain Presidential messages proposing new legislation or vetoes of legislation proposed by Congress. Executive and Treaty Documents are issued by the Senate when the President asks it to ratify a treaty.
They cover a wide range of topics and most do not have anything to do with a specific piece of legislation.
