OpenMass.org/OpenCongress.org : Great Resourses.

They take info from blogs and the mainstream media and show the text of bills; you have the ability to subscribe to RSS feeds for your Senators.

OpenCongress brings together official government data with news and blog coverage to give you the real story behind each bill.

This lets citizens lean about issues important to them. This is key to the democratic process.

Still in beta! Check them out.
