Congresspedia is a collaborative project of the Center for Media and Democracy and the Sunlight Foundation and is designed to shine more light on the workings of the U.S. Congress.
Congresspedia is part of SourceWatch, a collaboratively-written, wiki-based website documenting the people, organizations and issues shaping the public agenda.
Congresspedia is designed to be a place where you can get a closer look at representatives in Congress and a better understanding of the environment in which they work. Because this site is a wiki, it’s open for anyone to edit or add new information, so you can share what you know with everyone else.
To help insure fairness and accuracy, Congresspedia is overseen by a paid editor. More about Congresspedia.
Instapundit (Glenn Reynolds, author of An Army of Davids, which I won't shut up about, I know) had this comment:
