I am pleased to announce that Members by Interest took “Honorable Mention” in the Congressional Data Challenge! Many thanks to the judges and the folks at the Library of Congress. Many congratulations to the winners as well!

To celebrate the recognition, I’ve added the ability to link directly to an individual search. For example, to see a ranked list of House members for Bills and Resolutions for the policy area ‘Health’: http://esperr.github.io/members-by-interest/?congress=115&chamber=house&subjecttype=policy&subject=Health

Or to see the particular interests of my own congressional delegation: https://esperr.github.io/members-by-interest/?congress=115&chamber=house&subjecttype=policy&member=H001071

https://esperr.github.io/members-by-interest/?congress=115&chamber=senate&subjecttype=policy&member=I000055

https://esperr.github.io/members-by-interest/?congress=115&chamber=senate&subjecttype=policy&member=P000612

More enhancements coming soon…
