Congressional Timeline 2.0 from the Dirksen Center

The Dirksen Center announces its Congressional Timeline 2.0.  “The Congressional Timeline arrays more than 550 of the nation's laws on a double-banded timeline beginning in 1933 to the present. In addition to the major laws passed by Congress, now at your fingertips are the partisan composition of each Congress, along with the presidential administration and the congressional leaders; the session dates of each Congress; measures of legislative productivity, such as the number of bills introduced and passed; information about women and African-Americans serving in Congress; and examples of documents, photos, audio clips, transcripts, videos, and lesson plans all related to legislation.”  More.
