In general the SSA keeps a list of major policies (www.ssa.gov). I think it
might be hard to find some of what you are looking for in one place

Subject: [POLMETH] looking for international social policy data
Colleagues,
I am working on a project in which we want our dependent variable to be the
social policies of democratic nations. In other words, we seek some kind of
national summary measure of nations' social policies. The most important
one we seek is abortion -- how open is access to legal abortion in
democracies?
Other social policies we are interested in include prayer in school, sexual
education in school, dispensing of birth control in schools, euthanasia,
legality of marijuana, regulation of pornography, and gay marriage.
If people are aware of sources for this kind of data, I would appreciate it.
Thank you!
Greg
