A unified interface to government based on public data.


Exploring a unified citizen interface to government.

There are more than 38,000 Jurisdictions in the United States. A person's government changes based on where they live. From City Council, to County Boards, to State Legislature, up to Federal Congress Representatives and Senators, to the school boards and special districts in between, it makes sense to thread these layers of representation together into a coherent interface for citizens and public representatives alike.
