Use LawLinter as a legislative research workspace.

These guides explain how to search legislation, save repeat research, organize account workflows, bookmark bill text, and understand where alerts and API access fit.

Research workflows

Use LawLinter to search Congress, save repeat searches, favorite important legislative records, organize collections, and bookmark exact bill text passages.

Saved searches

Saved searches let account users return to repeat legislative queries and filter combinations for bill tracking, policy monitoring, and research follow-up.

Favorites and collections

Favorites save individual legislative records, while collections organize bills, searches, lawmakers, committees, votes, and bookmarks into named research workflows.

Bill text bookmarks

Bill text bookmarks help users save exact sections, search matches, snippets, and text-version locations inside congressional bill text.

Alerts

LawLinter uses internal site notifications for saved searches and favorite bills so legislative monitoring stays connected to source-linked pages.

API access

LawLinter account users can manage API keys separately from saved research workflows, supporting developer and organizational access to legislative data.

Why create an account?

Anonymous users can search public legislative records quickly.

Account users can save searches, favorite records, create collections, and bookmark exact bill text passages.

Site alerts give account users a reason to return without turning legislative monitoring into inbox noise.
