What is your Congressman saying?

Every day that Congress is in session, Capitol Words visualizes the Congressional Record for each Congressman, state, day, week, month, year, etc. A heat map shows which states’ lawmakers are talking the most, and lists shows which lawmakers are talking the most and least.

In Missouri, I know that Sam Graves was the most chatty in the last year (Dec. 13, 2007, to Dec. 12, 2008), and he seemed to be talking a lot about the Boy Scouts. (Which seems kind of strange.) The site also has a widget, although it would be more useful if widgets could be created for each state or lawmaker.
