We avoid the legalese and data overkill that weigh down other sites on congressional voting. Fast loading, efficiently organized and offering deep archives that are quickly searchable by topic, Voterama is unmatched as a public resource for tracking individual voting records in the U.S. House and Senate.

In addition to hosting this public site, we operate a subscription-based service -- The Votes in Congress Service -- that provides weekly coverage of major bills and key votes to hundreds of newspapers and digital sites nationwide. This proprietary coverage is available in a variety of text and graphic formats tailored to specific states and individual lawmakers. “Your service is accurate and reliable and runs like clockwork,” one Connecticut editor says (see How to Subscribe).

Our audience consists of millions of citizens who seek substantive information on congressional actions. We believe that even with Congress gripped by special interests and beholden to campaign contributors, it is possible for civic-minded, politically engaged citizens armed with facts to be heard and make a difference in shaping public policy. Our purpose is to provide the basic legislative information they need to accomplish this worthy objective.
