It lets you browse votes in a variety of ways -- both in aggregate and for individual members of Congress.</p> <p>Browse the database by drilling down to a particular Congress (e.g. <a href="http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/109/">109th Congress</a>) or particular member (e.g. <a href="http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/109/senate/members/">109th Congress senators</a>).</p> <p>This site publishes an RSS feed of recent votes by each member of Congress, and a feed of the most recent votes in both chambers. See the <a href="http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/rss/">RSS page</a> for full details.</p> <p>This site is generally updated every day, although there is a delay between a vote in Congress and its appearance on the official Congress Web sites.</p>
