🔌 MCP Serversh-patterson
An MCP server providing seamless access to comprehensive US legislative data, bills, and legislator information via LegiScan.
The legiscan-mcp server acts as a specialized bridge between AI models and the LegiScan legislative database. It implements the Model Context Protocol, allowing AI assistants to perform complex queries against a vast repository of US political data. Key features include the ability to search for specific bills by keyword or state, retrieve full-text legislative documents, track historical voting records, and fetch detailed contact and biographical information for state and federal representatives. By abstracting the LegiScan API into standard MCP tools, this project enables developers to build sophisticated policy-tracking agents that can summarize legislation, compare bills across jurisdictions, and provide up-to-date insights on political activity. It is designed for high interoperability, allowing any MCP-compliant client to leverage official legislative data without manual scraping or complex API integration logic.
