App Store Description

In Congress makes it easy to see what the US Congress is working on and how your representatives vote on the issues you care about.

In Congress shows who your representatives are, their votes, bills sponsored, contact information, committee roles, and more. It shows the summary and text of bills, amendments, action on the Floor, scheduled hearings, and votes by party.

The app organizes publicly available information about the proceedings of Congress into an easy to use, simple interface. View legislation by person, by bill and by vote. Save people and bills and follow their activity. In Congress makes it easy to find out who your representatives are, see the bills for yourself, and get the context of what's discussed in the news.

While designed for concerned voters, the app is also a useful tool for students of American Government at the high school level and above. The Reference section contains links to the Daily Digest, a copy of the Constitution, Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence and links to educational resources on Congress.gov. The Floor section contains links to live feeds of House and Senate proceedings.

The In Congress app is powered by data from the Sunlight Foundation (sunlightfoundation.com) and GovTrack.us.
