LegiScan
legiscan.com
A cross-jurisdiction legislative tracking engine providing open access to bill texts, voting records, and sponsor data across all 50 US states.
LegiScan aggregates data feeds from state legislatures into a unified, searchable platform. It tracks bill text changes, committee actions, roll call votes, and sponsor histories — making it possible to monitor legislative activity across multiple states simultaneously without navigating each state portal.
Why it is useful
State legislative portals are notoriously fragmented and hard to search. LegiScan standardises that entire landscape into one interface, letting researchers, journalists, and engaged citizens track real-time political activity across jurisdictions — the kind of civic monitoring that used to require a lobbyist budget.
