A POLITICAL TOOL FOR, NOT OF, CONGRESS…
October 31st, 2008From OpenCongress:
Today on OpenCongress, we’re launching a new feature that allows you to compare and contrast any two Members of Congress — especially Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama.
The Head-to-Head Vote tool provides an at-a-glance way to see where senators and representatives stand on the issues facing Congress today. See how their votes match up on hot bills and more. And here’s the direct link for Sen. McCain vs. Sen. Obama. And last, here’s a blog post with lots more information about 50 key votes taken by the two candidates.
reading the names of these legislation proposals, and then beginning to read the components of these legislation proposals,….leaves me with a complete lack of trust of congress.
Shalom Kaporeh,
First, thank you for stopping in, for reading and, most importantly, for taking the time to share your reactions in a comment. Building a community is all about our conversations.
Your observation is an important one. This is precisely why citizens must use tools such as these to keep our representatives honest.
B’shalom,
Jeff
