Earlier this month, Andrew brought us news that Congress.gov now allows for deep linking, so instead of just linking to the top page of a bill in Congress.gov, you can link to a specific section you want to share. In our second enhancement this month, we are adding sponsorship information to saved search alerts for legislation.
