ABSTRACT

We will be presenting the design and details of a project completed in Fall 20021 as part of the 485/Database Concepts course. Currently, easily readable information about our federal legislators is very difficult to find in a single localized place. Our project provides a single resource containing data about the various parties and committees, the full text of bills, and detailed information about legislators and how they voted. In order to better display voting data, our project also utilizes a dynamically generated map to display voting distribution among the states.
