DIY Congress

Tired of waiting to find out how your Congress Critters voted on the vital issues of our day, not to mention the non-binding resolutions declaring this Potato Peelers Appreciation Week?

Now you can Do It Yourself!

A new site called Open Congress makes it even easier than Thomas.
It's organized by bill, by representative, by senator, by committee, by issue and even by industry. Each lawmaker page lists background information, sponsored and co-sponsored legislation, and votes on recent legislation.

It's a gold mine.

(Full disclosure: I found this today while catching up on my blog reading - Josh Marshall had this on Talking Points Memo February 26.)

Don't worry - we'll still be comin' atcha with all the vote-related praise and snark you expect.
