us-eli-mcp
MCP server for the Congress.gov API. Tracks the US federal legislative process - bills as they move through committees and floor votes.
What this is not
This connector does not cover:
Enacted law text - the US Code and Statutes at Large live at GovInfo (
api.govinfo.gov), a separate API with its own package/granule identifier scheme. Not implemented here yet.State legislation (all 50 states) - see LegiScan, a free-tier aggregator (30,000 queries/month) not wrapped here yet.
Case law - CourtListener already has mature, permissively-licensed MCP wrappers (blakeox/courtlistener-mcp, MIT). Building a third one would be redundant; see DISCOVERY.md.
