WashingtonWatch.com makes a variety of RSS feeds available so that
you can follow the specific information you're interested in. If
you're unfamiliar with RSS (Really Simple Syndication), you can
learn
more about it here. From the home page, we offer links to
WashingtonWatch.com's two main feeds. The
main feed
displays all bills as they are added to our database. Entries are
updated as bills reach key points in the legislative process, such
as when they move out of committee, or when they pass one house of
Congress.
The second main feed is the
cost/savings-only feed. It displays bills that have received a
cost/savings estimate. (These estimates change by small amounts
regularly given fluctuations in interest rates and changing
population figures, so you may want to select "Ignore Updates" if
your feed reader supports that, though this may also cause you to
miss updated cost estimates.)
On each bill page there are two feeds, one for comments and one
for edits to the wiki. The "status" feed displays the current status
of the bill and changes to that status. The "comments" feed will
display each new comment added by WashingtonWatch.com visitors as a
new item. The "edits" feed will display each new version of the wiki
page as a separate item.
Finally, we have created a feed for bills that have passed
Congress. Use the
New
Laws feed to stay aware of what bills Congress has recently
passed into law.
