Congress In Your Pocket

CONGRESS IN YOUR POCKET - "AN APPLE STAFF FAVORITE"

Congress In Your Pocket is the iPhone's #1 application offering vital information on members of Congress for citizens, activists, party officials, political professionals, government employees, corporations and lobbyists. Remember, they work on Capitol Hill but they represent you.

Our applications are highly rated by Apple, Macworld, and mobile users like you. Macworld calls Congress+ and President two of the three very best politics apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch. In February, Congress+ was chosen by Apple as a "New and Noteworthy" application and in October as a "Staff Favorite".

Why lug around that big, expensive, outdtated yellow book or the cheaper spiral one when you have a perfectly good solution in you pocket? Congress In Your Pocket is wherever you are. Have all the information you want on Congress -- as often as you want it.

By popular request, we have released President, our application for the executive branch, and our first round of states including California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, Texas, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin. We are looking to add all 50 states. If you are interested helping us with an application for your state, please check out our map first to see if it's available.
