Tom

With the start of the 104th Congress, the House leadership
approved release of the official U.S. House of Representatives
World Wide Web through House Information Systems.

It is located at:  http://www.house.gov

It will be the most comprehensive source of House legislative
data found electronically from the House of Representatives.

Pass it on and enjoy accessing ...  Happy New Year

US House WWW Update

For those of you who had problems over the last two days
connecting to the House WWW ... we are experiencing an
approximate 2500 connects per hour ... we are working on an
improved performance solution ...

As a review some of the highlights of the new WWW are:

. status of bills and amendments, same day after introduction
. summary of current House Floor debate (updated throughout day)
. House Floor and Committee schedules
. member and committee directories (incl. e-mail addresses)
. Congressional Record
. full text of bills
. summaries of recent House Floor and Committee actions
. US Code and Code of Federal Regulations
. Organization and Operations information about the House -
   Ethics Manual, House Rules
. Educational Info - How our Laws are Made, Dec. of Independence,
  US Constitution
. visitor info


This info will expand tremendously over the upcoming year ...

Again the URL is     http://www.house.gov

For those with gopher access only a good portion of this info is
also available ... Gopher location is    gopher.house.gov

please pass around ...

thanks
