Ask PG: Would you help HN lobby for a mandatory Congress vote history API?

If something like this is already in place, I'd love to know about it.

Wouldn't it be much easier to hold Congress accountable if we had access to an API that provided us public information about each member of Congress?

Useful data would include:

-Entire voting history for each member of Congress -contact information -information about their district -what bills they are sponsors/co-sponsors of -any earmarks or money they have received, the amount, and who it was from
