We all remember learning in school that Congress is the branch of the government that makes the nation's laws. While the legislative process in the House of Representatives is detailed, a number of online resources are available today to help you track what we are working on.
In every two-year session of Congress, members of the House of Representatives introduce more than 6,000 bills. The search function, list of bills I have introduced and the daily and weekly floor schedules included on this page can help you find out about those bills you are interested in and help you make some sense out the process that results in our laws.
