[Federal] Your Tax Dollars Secretly At Work

The Congressional Research Service does its best to provide members of Congress with untainted and accurate analysis. However, those reports are not publicly made available, so the Open CRS Network has created a website which indexes and stores those publicly-funded reports. Current reports cover such issues as Afghanistan, Enemy Combatants, Energy Policy, Gasoline Prices, Homeland Security, Identity Theft, Iraq, the PATRIOT Act and Social Security.

If you'd like to see the information your Congresscritter uses to make up their mind, this site is worth your time, [UPDATE] as is the University of North Texas Library collection, http://digital.library.unt.edu/govdocs/crs/index.tkl, which you can search on, or browse by topic.
