Legislative tracking – the features
Federal tracking
Access both federal and state legislative tracking solutions all under one subscription. Evaluate bill summaries – written by subject matter experts – that allow you to quickly determine the significance, meaning, and history behind legislation of interest.
State tracking
Search over 1 million bills across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Ensure your results only cover the related issues with filters by state, sponsor, co-sponsor, topic, leadership office, bill status, session year, party, and caucus.
Custom alerts
Save your searches so you can return to them whenever you need to. Then set custom alerts that will arrive in your email and let you know when a new bill on your topic of interest is released. Pick the frequency and time that works for you.
Version comparisons
Search within a bill and, when an update is made, view a redline pdf. See even the smallest differences between versions including minute word changes that have significant implications. Then view associated documents available for download.
