GovTrack.us — a 2006 Webby Award nominee mentioned in both The New York Times and The Washington Post — brings together legislative data from existing government sources and presents it in a user-friendly format, and provides the ability to track legislative events as they happen via email updates and RSS/Atom feeds. GovTrack provides its services for free.
As a nexus of information about the United States Congress, GovTrack brings together information on the status of federal legislation, voting records, and campaign contributions. The site automatically tracks legislative events and categorizes them into thousands of subjects, such as "nuclear energy" and "medicine," so that users can subscribe to follow just the events that interest them. Events, like the passage of bills, are sent to users on a daily or weekly basis by email, or through RSS/Atom feeds.
Information is retrieved from a variety of government websites, primarily THOMAS and also sites listed on this page, on a daily basis.
