Hi All,
I was asked how to look things up in the US Congress...

The starting point is http://thomas.loc.gov/ or http://www.senate.gov/

CONGRESSIONAL RECORD
The public proceedings of each House of Congress, as reported by the
Official Reporters thereof, are printed pursuant to directions of the
Joint Committee on Printing as authorized by appropriate provisions
of Title 44, United States Code, and published for each day that one
or both Houses are in session, excepting very infrequent instances when
two or more unusually small consecutive issues are printed at one time.
Public access to the Congressional Record is available online through
GPO Access, a service of the Government Printing Office, free of charge
to the user. The online database is updated each day the Congressional
Record is published. The database includes both text and graphics from
the beginning of the 103d Congress, 2d session (January 1994) forward.
It is available on the Wide Area Information Server (WAIS) through the
Internet and via asynchronous dial-in. Internet users can access the
database by using the World Wide Web...

Try this out by selecting senate, a span of dates (say 09/19/2000 to
09/25/2000) and then typing the name of your state in the Search box...
