Bills Tracker

Core Tool

A comprehensive tracker of all Ukraine-related legislation in the 119th Congress, including status, progress, committee assignments, and bill text summaries.

How to use it

  • Browse all bills or filter by category (Military Aid, Immigration, Sanctions, etc.)
  • Click any bill to see its full detail page with analysis, talking points, and advocacy scripts
  • Use the priority filter to focus on bills that need the most urgent action
  • Check the 'Why It Matters' callout on each bill to understand its real-world impact

Pro tip: Focus on bills where your representative sits on the relevant committee. Those calls carry the most weight.
