Web site of the dayKEEPING TRACK OF CONGRESS --
Wondering what your elected officials are doing in the House and Senate? You can keep track of them through a free e-mail alert service from http://www.yourcongress.com.
Founded by a former Hill staffer, http://www.yourcongress.com gives daily political headlines and allows visitors to sign up to receive alerts whenever their representatives or senators have something in the Congressional Record. That includes what they've said on the floor and what they've inserted into the record. If you like, you can read the insertion online.
You can also pay to receive updates on any special issues you're following.
The site's overall approach is light. The line under the site's name says, "Learn. Track. Laugh." One of the three elements for communicating directly with your rep is called Quick Bitch. The other two are Quick Thanks and Quick Free.
The site also offers such information as how to get an appointment to see your rep when you're visiting Washington. What we do Learn how Concepts' resources can help you improve your writing, editing and publications. | | |
