Description

NOTE: this app is not affiliated with Congress! It is a volunteer effort, published by an individual (Eric Mill).

Data is collected using ProPublica's Congress API, which in turn collects data from Congress and other official sources.

Keep on top of Congress:

* Find your representatives, see how they vote
* See what bills are coming up for a vote next
* Search for bills and votes you should know about
* Stay on top of floor activity, committee hearings
* Be notified of just about everything

Notes for those interested in permissions or analytics:

* The app makes phone calls only when you tap the "Call" button for a member of Congress.
* We collect anonymous app usage statistics by default. To opt out: from the main screen, tap the menu on the top right, tap Settings, then uncheck "Allow Analytics".

This app is proudly open source:

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

5 ★I love this app. The user interface is clean and simple to navigate, and it helps you track bills through Congress easily and just kind of see what the government is doing. Huge fan.
5 ★This app is incredibly useful and very functional. I do not know what I would do without this app. The committee tab does not work. Also, add a donate button so the creators can make some $$.
5 ★I love the information content in this app You can find anything you want see about the government urgency and especially when you're leaving on feedback you got the answer you got one opinion about especially when we are talking about children's infusions because many illegal things going wrong in this world I hope this made this app is the wonderful one by the year it's really nice I love the app
1 ★It appears to be a fork of the old Sunlight foundation app... But it doesn't work. Searching returns an error, clicking on a bill in the hone page returns an error, trying to find a MoC returns an error.
5 ★Easy access to anything you may be looking for. May take some time to master it but once you do you cam follow what you care about closely from the source.
1 ★Used to be a good app. Now due to upgrades it doesnt do the notifications.
5 ★I absolutely love the app!! I can stay plugged in and informed of what is transpiring in Congress. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
5 ★I can't believe I didn't have this app years ago. Makes it easy to stay aware of bills in time to send congressmen comments by phone. Who knows if it does any good though.
5 ★Excellent, once you explore the app it is very easy to know what is happening in both cambers and the commitees.
4 ★Awesome app. Would have given 5 stars if it would also give information on reps and senators at the state level, rather than just Federal.
4 ★Great app but it would be nice if we had apps for all the other major assembles as well. But great app all together.
5 ★Great useful resourceful app. In times like these we need this information easily accessible.
