Weird. It worked when I first put it in (I tested in the preview), but now it gives me an error, too. Usually I just start here and search for the relevant individual's (co)sponsored legislation. For some reason that starts on the 107th Congress, not the current (108th).

Incidentally, I've found Thomas to be a great way to get a feel for where a Senator or Representative really stands, since sponsored legislation is generally more relevant (and easier to look through) than voting record, though the latter is certainly important, too. Sure, you have to sift through a lot of "Blue-stuff-that-barbers-soak-combs-in Manufacturers' Appreciation Week"-type legislation, but hopefully you don't have to look too far before something more meaningful turns up.
