Capitol Lens

Every vote. Every stock trade. Every committee conflict. See the full record of your representatives — sourced from official government data.

Capitol Lens puts the complete record of every member of Congress in your pocket — votes, stock trades, party loyalty, committee conflicts, and more. All data comes from official U.S. government records. No spin. No commentary. Just the record, presented clearly so you can draw your own conclusions.

PERSONALIZED HOME FEED

Follow your representatives and the issues you care about. Capitol Lens finds your two senators and one representative by zip code and builds a feed around their activity — recent votes, new bills, and stock trades. Add any member of Congress to your feed to track them over time.

FOUR ORIGINAL ANALYTICS TOOLS

Most political apps summarize the news. Capitol Lens surfaces patterns in the data that are hard to spot elsewhere:

Maverick Score — Measures how often a member breaks with their own party on floor votes. A high score means genuine independence. A low score means near-perfect party loyalty. Calculated from every recorded vote in the current session.

Ghost Voter — Tracks missed votes. Every member is expected to vote on nearly every roll call. Ghost Voter reveals who shows up and who disappears — and whether absences cluster around specific topics.

Conflict Radar — Flags potential conflicts of interest by surfacing stock trades that overlap with a member's committee assignments. A senator on the Armed Services Committee trading defense stocks gets highlighted. You decide what to make of it.

Power Trader — Ranks members by stock trading volume alongside their institutional power (leadership roles, committee chairs). Members with high power and high trading activity stand out immediately.
