Find your reps. Look up any member of Congress. Sponsored bills, cosponsors, committee work, and the complete voting record.
Track legislation. Every bill, normalized and timestamped, with the actions that moved it through Congress.
Personal watchlist. Star a legislator or a bill. The next time you visit, your dashboard surfaces what moved while you were away.
Vote breakdowns. Roll-call votes with party splits and the members who broke from their own party.
Why Open America
Not another news sitePrimary sources only
Data comes straight from congress.gov, clerk.house.gov, and senate.gov. The same sources Congress itself publishes. No interpretation layered on top.
Refreshed while Congress works
While a chamber is in session, floor activity, roll-call votes and White House bill statements are re-checked every minute and new bills, committee meetings and hearings every five minutes; lobbying filings, House financial disclosures and committee rosters refresh once a day, the Senate's daily floor record hourly through the evening, discharge petitions every six hours, and election results every five minutes from the state feeds once counting begins on November 3, and every minute through election night.
No tracking, no ads
We don't sell your data. We don't run analytics that follow you off-site. We don't have an editorial board with a side to push.
Three clicks to an answer
If you want to know whether your senator voted on a specific bill last Tuesday, you can find out in three clicks. That is the whole point.
