美國國會資訊為由一群國會的採訪記者所建立，是因為受不了使用國會議會和圖書館網頁的超級慢速度。(譯者註:提供自第105屆國會會期之後的資料，包括參、眾議員。) (原本國會官方網站的速度較慢，現在已有改善） CapWeb is a site created by a cadre of congressional staffers to work around the frustration of using the SLOOOOOOW congressional and Library of Congress sites. (The official congressional sites are much better now.)
早期國會文件的數位圖文典藏 (超級棒的！)。各位同學可以找尋從第42屆（追朔到1873年）開始的國會期刊，以及其他的文件。 Digitized fascimiles of early congressional documents. Totally cool! You can also search the House and Senate Journals up to the 42nd Congress (up to 1873), in addition to other documents.
美國的有線電視C-SPAN為向觀眾提供美國參、眾兩院以及其他討論決定公共政策機關自始至終的過程。 C-SPAN to see live television from the floor of the House and Senate
「Roll Call」為美國國會山莊的「當地報紙」。報導的範圍從嚴肅的新聞到當地的八卦，山莊新聞是另家筆鋒更銳利的新聞報紙。 Roll Call is the "home town newspaper" of Capitol Hill. Information ranging from straight news to hometown gossip. The Hill is an upstart competitor that's a little edgier.
Dirksen中心也架設名為CongressLink的網站，提供國會的連結以及學術活動的報導。 The Dirksen Center has created a site called CongressLink, which contains a mixture of good congressional links and academic exercises.
聯邦候選人競選活動簡介為私人網站，有候選人的簡介、資料、 概況、最新消息…等資訊可供參考，有時候比聯邦選舉委員會的網站更有用。 FECInfo is a private Web site that turns around FEC data. This is sometimes more useful than the FEC site.
「廉能政治研究中心」提供關於個別國會議員，特別是有關於選戰經費的豐富資訊。(譯者註：特別是追蹤並研究金錢在政治活動中的應用及其對選舉和國家政策之影響。) The Center for Responsive Politics has a lot of information about individual MCs, particularly information about campaign finance.
有關於國會運作之資料與出版品 Data and Publications About Congressional Action
華盛頓郵報有個很棒的頁面有有關於美國政府資訊的各網站，其中包含有關國會的網站。 The Washington Post has a very good page that points to U.S. Government information sites, including Congress.
德克森研究中心為紀念伊利諾州的參議員德克森（Everett M. Dirksen）。有經費贊助專案與教育計畫，提供給專業研究者與學生。其CongressLink網站蒐羅國會研究的相關資源，對學習國會的教師和學生都非常有用。 The Dirksen Center honors the memory of Sen. Everett M. Dirksen. It has grants and educational programs that are of some interest to the professional and student, alike. Their CongressLink page has a lot of resources that are helpful to teachers and students of Congress.
「國會觀察者」提供國會的資訊（包含唱名投票），是一個商業網站，但頗值得一觀。 Congressional Observer Publications has a bunch of information (including roll call votes) about Congress. This is a commercial site, but it looks good.
休士頓大學的Keith Poole提供這幾年有趣與有用唱名投票的資訊。(希望Keith不介意我將他的網站放上來…) Keith Poole at the University of Houston has the most interesting and useful roll call information up and running for recent years. (I hope Keith doesn't mind putting his home page on mine...) .
美國大學的a href="http://www.american.edu/dlublin/research/data.htm" target="_blank">David Lublin張貼他國會選區的資料。 David Lublin, at American University, has posted his congressional district data.
此處介紹一套軟體，而非資料庫：PoliSim，這是一套選舉模擬系統，提供選舉競爭之空間模式如何運作的清楚圖形。（唯這網頁已有五年的時間，有必要更新） While it's not data -- it's software -- the PoliSim election simulator provides a pretty neat visualization of how spatial models of electoral competition work. (The page is now abot 5 years old. Please take the fellow up on his challenge to update it.)
美國政治科學學會的立法研究部門有自己的網頁，包含電子報以及其他立法的相關連結。 The Legislative Studies Section of the American Political Science Association has its own home page, including the electronic version of its newsletter and other legislative links.
