About This Website

GovTrack.us is an independent tool to help the public research and track the activities in the U.S. Congress, promoting and innovating government transparency and civic education through novel uses of technology. You’ll find here the status of U.S. federal legislation [example], voting records in the Senate and House of Representatives [example], and information on Members of Congress [example], district maps, as well as congressional committees and the Congressional Record.

The site is a research tool (much like the government website THOMAS but better), but also a free tracking service. Pick up Trackers throughout the site to make a personalized feed or get email updates. You can also embed a few widgets on your own webpage to keep your visitors up to date about legislation.

Innovation and experimentation is also a large part of GovTrack. We have a unique visitor Q&A system: ask a question about a bill and see if other visitors will provide an answer [example]. That’s worked surprisingly well. We also invented an advanced bill text viewer, track tweets about bills, and are starting a team of citizen reporters on the ground in DC.

GovTrack.us is not affiliated with the U.S. government or any other group. It is a pet project of a regular joe. (More About GovTrack) /
