Most governments do maintain a consolidated version of their laws, but that's something different than the bills. Compare it with GitHub: the consolidated version is the head of the repository, while the bills are Pull Requests.
E.g. for the US there's the US code: https://uscode.house.gov/ https://uscode.house.gov/; which for every section has both the text as currently in effect, as well as a list of all historical amendments.
