Nothings stopping you from reading through the Congressional Record or watching C-SPAN all day, but Pocket Congress makes the information much more accessible and searchable.

With the app, you can:
• See recent votes in Congress
• Find your Representative using your zip code 
• See Congresspeople’s votes on recent bills.

• Call their office, straight from the app!

You can also search for recent bills or through 30 years of historical data.
• Search by category, such as healthcare or environmental
• Search by bill name
• For advanced users: search by bill number
For all bills, you can see their stage in the legislative process and a summary of the bill text authored by the Congressional Research Service.

Share links to specific bills and congressmembers (perfect for educating your friends or spreading the word on social media)!
