Most are familiar with the government website that lets people petition the White House as it calls for in the Constitution. The White House will provide a response to any petition that gathers 25,000 signatures. It’s very interesting to read the responses from the White House Press Secretary and a few are actually from Obama himself.
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/ Go to responses to see the most recent ones that the White House has responded to.
There is also a site that lists how, when, and what each member of congress voted on every bill. It is a congressional government website. This is extremely useful in seeing how your member of Congress voted.
http://thomas.loc.gov/home/rollcallvotes.htmlThat one tells all the bills voted on and who sponsored them.
http://www.opencongress.org/This one is a Non-Profit that shows you votes on every bill. Very interesting how some members vote and also the bills that get voted on that no one talks about.
Gotta stay informed.
