Know your
representatives.
Information about who represents you is spread across dozens of government websites in different formats. CIV.IQ brings it together as a civic utility should: organized, accessible, and nonpartisan.
535
Members of Congress
435 House members and 100 Senators. Voting records, committee assignments, sponsored legislation, and plain-language summaries.
50
State Legislatures
7,383 state legislators across all 50 states. Bills, votes, committees, governors, and attorneys general. State campaign finance is not currently available.
12
Intelligence Analyzers
Statistical analysis cross-referencing votes, campaign finance, lobbying, and stock trades. Every insight carries a confidence score and methodology.

Government Data Sources
Congress.gov, FEC, Census Bureau, Federal Register, Senate lobbying disclosures, USASpending, BLS, and more.
Votes, campaign contributions, lobbying filings, committee records, federal spending — this data exists in the public record, but it sits in isolated databases that no regular citizen has the time or skill to connect. Lobbyists and political consultants connect it every day. Citizens cannot. CIV.IQ corrects that asymmetry.
Type in your address and it opens up a whole world of information: who represents you at every level, how they vote, the money behind them, and how it all compares to their peers. Your address is the key.
Coverage
Federal: Complete across all wired domains — bills, votes, members, committees, FEC campaign finance, lobbying disclosures, federal contracts, and the Federal Register.
State: All 50 state legislatures via OpenStates (legislators, bills, committees, votes). State campaign finance is not currently available — FollowTheMoney.org is in maintenance mode during the OpenSecrets merger.
Local: 10 pilot cities via Legistar — Austin, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Detroit, Minneapolis, Oakland, Philadelphia, Portland, Seattle. Outside this list, local routes return “data unavailable” rather than empty arrays.

What This Data Cannot Tell You
Private talks. Congress members negotiate behind closed doors. You see only the public votes and statements.
Bills that never get a vote. Leaders can block bills without a vote. You cannot tell which bills died this way.
How well your representative helps people. We show contact info but not how fast or well the office handles your problems.
Who meets with your representative. Lobbying reports list some meetings. Most access leaves no public record.
Which votes matter most. Some votes are symbolic. Others change law. We show all votes the same way.
Staff quality. Most daily work in Congress happens through staff. We have no data on staff performance.
Whether money changed a vote. We show contributions and votes side by side. We cannot tell you if one caused the other.
