Comments on Congress for Android

★★★★★ Excellent Congress app. Help keeping you informed, updated, tracked current H.R. and Senate bills, votes, and committees transactions, etc. Provide correct contact data. Plus, it shows how both political parties take care of citizens business together Keep up the great work.

★★★★★ Just what you'd hope an app about Congress' lawmaking would be. Informs, presents no bias, and rebuilds trust in the federal government.

★★★★★ I like everything about this app Very easy, I can save my senators and congress, with update though Now the committee and subcommittee won't load. They used to load?? Can you fix that? I can keep tabs on votes, bills, etc...

★★☆☆☆ There is no Constitution of the United States of America. The Congress and senate have betrayed thier oaths as did the presidents and vice presidents since 1974. You do not have my convent as you are all impeached.

★★☆☆☆ Doesn't seem to be updated for a couple of years, floor action is from 2021
