Are you a Hill staffer working on health care? The Farm Bill? DISCLOSE?

Or do you track legislation for your member?

If so, Sunlight is doing a briefing on our latest legislative alert tool, Scout, for Capitol Hill staff today, Friday July 13th at 2pm in Rayburn room 2203. (You can RSVP online here)

We built Scout to help everyone — including busy Capitol Hill staffers — better monitor the issues and policies important to them. The tool combines a variety of sources including the Congressional Record, THOMAS, GovTrack, the Federal Register and Sunlight’s Open States project to create legislative  searches about issues you care about. From federal legislation, speeches, regulations, to bills across all fifty states, Scout lets you search and create alerts all in one place.

The briefing will also include an overview on Sunlight’s other legislative and governmental tools such as Capitol Words and our Congress mobile app.

We hope you can join us today Friday the 13th in Rayburn 2203 (just avoid stepping on cracks or walking under ladders).

Rabbit foot optional.
