Your Congress
Tell us a little about yourself to see the recent bills that affect you, and how your members of Congress voted on them.
Bills that affect everyone
Taxes, cost of living and health care costs: bills that reached the floor and touch everyone, not written for any one group.
Recently introduced on these topics
Bills that haven't reached a vote yet but had action in the last 3 months. Most bills never get a vote.
How bills are picked
Each answer maps to the groups it describes (for example, “Renter” adds renting, and “65 or older” adds Medicare and Social Security). A bill counts only if it directly concerns that group: its title names the group, or the group is a main subject of the bill (at least a third of the subjects the Congressional Research Service tagged it with). A bill that affects everyone, that group included, doesn't count. Very large bills, such as spending packages and the defense bill, carry hundreds of tags, so they only match by title. Bills on taxes, cost of living and health care costs, which touch everyone, are listed separately. Your ZIP code adds bills about your state.
The main list shows bills from this Congress that reached the floor: they passed a chamber, became law, or got a recorded vote. Under each bill are its latest recorded votes on the bill itself (passage, cloture, veto override; not amendments or procedural votes), with how each party voted and how your representative and senators voted. Bills passed by voice vote or unanimous consent have no member-by-member record.
Race and ethnicity only add bills written for specific communities. Age adds only groups defined by age (children and schools under 18; Medicare and Social Security at 65 and over), and income only assistance programs under $30,000 and high-earner bills over $200,000. Answers never hide anything.
