Track new and recently introduced U.S. federal bills by keyword, status, or Congress number, via the public GovTrack.us API: bill number, title, sponsor, chamber, and current legislative status.

Built for policy, government-affairs, and lobbying teams who need to catch new bills touching a topic without checking congress.gov by hand.

"congress": 119,

}

How it works

Direct calls to the public GovTrack.us API — no proxy, no key, no scraping. GovTrack aggregates official congress.gov/THOMAS legislative data into a clean public API.

Pricing note

Billed per search, not per bill returned — one charge whether the search returns 0 bills or 100.
