Govtrack.us is a remarkable site. It is so detailed and in depth that I thought it was an actual government website but we all know a governmental website could never be so user friendly as this site. It is “an independent, non-partisan, non-commercial website founded in September 2004.” The site offers everything from daily roll call to legislators’ statement of earnings. It’s quite remarkable.
Although usually a day behind, it offers every motion and vote. Any legislator’s voting record for the past ten years, the attendance record, historical breakdown of campaign contributors, bills sponsored or co-sponsored by any candidate, the status and committee assignments of all bills proposed are all offered there. I could go on for hours and I have yet to explore all of its features!
I implore you to check it out, or at least looking up your local legislator. I will be placing a link over here ----------------------- >
