Congress Daily

• Search the Congress Daily Database

National Journal's CongressDaily delivers timely, behind-the-scenes coverage and analysis of House and Senate activities.

Users can access twice-daily updates, CongressDailyAM and CongressDailyPM, to learn of key developments on the Hill as they unfold. Our membership includes the CongressDailyMobile Edition, specially formatted for PDAs and Blackberries.

With its revamped website launching later this year, CongressDaily online will provide more benefits, such as the ability to set up issue-specific alert notifications and search the top 600 political and policy related web sites for information.

Employees have access to these resources:

• Markup Reports
  • Read coverage of the majority of Congressional committee and subcommittee markup sessions on the Hill. It includes roll call votes and is usually available long before official reports.
• Campaign Tip Sheets
  • A quick reference guide to the campaigns around the country. Quickly get the lay of the land on gubernatorial, Senate, House, and White House races.
• Daybook
  • The Daybook is a comprehensive calendar of events, meetings, conferences, and hearings both on and off the Hill. It also lists future events in the Washington area so that you can plan ahead. Search the Daybook events up to two years in advance or add your organization's event to let people know about it. Use the personalized Daybook E-mail Alert to set up a daily alert letting you know what events are happening in your issue areas.
