LegiStorm releases first premium product to enhance public mission

Posted by LegiStorm on Tuesday, September 13, 2011

LegiStorm, the web site that has provided transparency to Washington since its founding in September 2006, celebrates its fifth anniversary with the launch of a major new premium product intended to support its public mission.

The new LegiStorm Pro product is geared toward the professional users of congressional information, including journalists, librarians, researchers, lobbyists, political activists and congressional staff.

"We like to think of LegiStorm Pro as our existing site on steroids," said Jock Friedly, founder and president of LegiStorm. "It gives users vastly more functionality and information than the existing site, making it the richest existing source of information about the people who work for the legislative branch."

Among LegiStorm Pro's offerings:
