GovTrack is one of 21 APIs that [Public Sector](https://apis.io/providers/public-sector/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Federal, Civic Tech, Congress, Bills, and Votes. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes a GitHub repository.

GovTrack.us civic-tech site tracking U.S. Congress — bills, votes, members, committees, congressional districts. Originally one of the first civic-tech APIs; today its bulk data downloads at govtrack.us/data and its scraper pipeline at github.com/govtrack/congress remain widely reused even as the public REST API has been wound down in favor of api.congress.gov and bulk downloads.
