Great concept. A few features no longer work :( and it hasn't been updated in over a year. I would really like to see and update because we recently had an election and I would like to be kept up to date with goverment affairs
With life being crazy, I always struggle with keeping up with congress and my gov officials. I really like this app, it lists what's in the house, and what everybody's vote is towards, as well as updates if it passed and when. I'm still new to the app but I'm pleased so far. If I may make one suggestion, I'd like to give a thumbs up or down on Bill's, laws, and rememberances; as I scroll through and learn about the bill, Kind of an unofficial polling.
Very informative, with all the bills , laws in flux and recently created. This is a very nice organizer and well thought out. I wish more folks would apply themselves to stay in touch with what happens in their goverment. This App was designed to help the end user pay attention. So if you are reading this and not paying attention. Pay attention,things can change for the better when you understand them for what they are and keep striving for "the bette!". We all deserve better!
Having trouble loading all the committee member names (shows error)... even after update. Still love though! 5 stars if we can get it fixed. @Bean hit the 3 dots to the top right of the bill introduced and you can select "official text" to read the entire bill straight from the website
Not a bad app it works as fast as our government does. Sometimes the given links for the discription of the bills dont contain any info. But that could be caused by a delay on their end getting them all in the system.
It appears to be a fork of the old Sunlight foundation app... But it doesn't work. Searching returns an error, clicking on a bill in the hone page returns an error, trying to find a MoC returns an error.
This app is excellent! Everyone should be using it to know the proposals and laws. Some of the proposed laws are surprising. It's great to be able to see actual descriptions, follow the progress, see who supports and who does not support a bill and be informed to know what's going on and be involved.
The last time any progress on the farm bill was noted was way back in September. But there is news all over the place that this is going to be finish by the end of the year. It would be nice if the status was frequently updated.
All House and Senators listed with photos and contact info. You can save anyone as a contact to your phone with one click. Review all bills, votes, etc. Really nice app. 👌
What a well-done app! I'm optimistic that people will be able to utilize this app to be better informed of what's actually going on in Congress. Too many people lose sight AFTER they vote for candidates. We have to be diligent in staying informed of exactly what our elected officials are putting into legislature. This app makes it easier. Well done!
It is exactly what is needed. We can see what bills are up for a vote. How our Congress people vote on them and so much more. East to maneuver too for an old person like myself. Contact reps. Great App!
It's a really good app to keep informed. I love the feature that you can reach out and call your representatives in it. I would like to see The app continued to expand on multiple ways of contacting your representatives. Thank you
If only everyone could be about the Congress and practise the constitution how it was meant to be. I think this would be a great app for middle to high school learning tools. Manipulate these apps into school classes.
This seems like a great way to stay informed. Especially as originally stories and news become harder to find and support.
Excellent, once you explore the app it is very easy to know what is happening in both cambers and the commitees.
Exactly what I was looking for. You can read through the bills yourself and create your own interpretations of bills without the media bias, and see which way our representatives vote. Easy app to navigate through too!
I set alerts for a specific peice of legislation. The bill was voted on and passed and I still haven't received an alert almost 24 hours later. This is not a reliable tool. It's better to just go to congress.gov and get the information on your own.
This app really is a one of kind as far I know and has literally tons of information relating to congress, bills, names of everyone who hold positions, etc,. Very informative, great app.
I like everything about this app Very easy, I can save my senators and congress, with update though Now the committee and subcommittee won't load. They used to load?? can you fix that? I can keep tabs on votes, bills, etc...
This is a very useful app. Sometimes gets confusing when trying to find a specific bill to read. Otherwise the only thing that would make this better is if it included state legislatures.
This app is incredibly useful and very functional. I do not know what I would do without this app. The committee tab does not work. Also, add a donate button so the creators can make some $$.
Very good format as long as it's relevant realtime updated very good please implement Blockchain type voting system to shadow voting polls for security comparison maybe add a free speech forum .....this could become more relevant and rivaling current methods more than just information but interactive politics
We need more of this! Every single American should have this app and be in tune with some of the doings of congress. Democracy gives voters the government they deserve. We need more people to participate directly with our democracy, not through the lens of the media. Alternative or otherwise.
A very resourceful, organized, and easy to use application that does a great job at making it more feasible for busy Americans to get connected with their Government and remain up to date on Legislation activity in Congress. I was more than pleased with the layout of the app and the simple, straightforward design that makes using it effectively very easy.
