What The F***?
Because sometimes the only appropriate response to what Congress is doing is a moment of jaw-dropping disbelief. We get it. So do you. You're not alone.
The average US Senator is over 65. The median American voter is 48. One of these groups writes the laws.
Members of Congress vest into a lifetime pension after just five years of service. Average American worker vests after… more than that.
Thousands of bills are introduced every session. Most die in committee — quietly, without a vote, without a word.
Major legislation routinely runs 1,000+ pages. Floor debate is often a few hours. Nobody read it. Vote's already scheduled.
Congressional approval has been below 30% for over a decade. Reelection rates for incumbents stay above 90%. Do the math.
Everything you need to actually follow what Congress is doing to you.
Know what's coming before it hits the floor. Follow the schedule, track committee hearings, and notice when something gets fast-tracked — or quietly buried without a vote.
Find out exactly how your representatives voted on every bill — and whether those votes match what they promised you on the campaign trail. The record is public. So is the gap.
Get notified when bills that affect you actually hit the floor. The gap between "introduced with fanfare" and "quietly signed into law" is where a lot of damage gets done.
Passed. Failed. Tabled. Amended beyond recognition. We track every bill from introduction to (if it's lucky) law — in plain English, without the legislative jargon.
Attendance records, voting patterns, campaign donor breakdowns. What they actually do — not what they say they do. With names and numbers attached.
A weekly rundown of what Congress actually did — not what the press releases claimed. Sourced from official records. Blunt where bluntness is warranted.
Enter your email. Every morning, get a plain-English briefing on what Congress did the day before — what passed, what failed, and what your representatives were actually up to.
Healthcare, housing, environment, taxes, defense — tell us what matters to you and we'll cut through the noise to the votes and bills that actually affect it.
Get alerts, check vote records, track bills in real time. Know what happened before you call your rep — or before you decide whether to bother calling at all.
Sign up and we'll brief you every morning on what Congress did while you were asleep. Bills, votes, your reps — the full picture, in plain English.
