A republic, if you can keep it.

Benjamin Franklin, 1787

Nonpartisan accountability reports on every new Florida and federal bill.

How it works

  1. 1

    A bill is filed

    Each new filing is picked up from the official record.

  2. 2

    The text is reviewed

    We read the official record and write a clear account of the measure.

  3. 3

    The sponsor is investigated

    We look for conflicts and for who the bill would affect.

  4. 4

    The report is published

    Subscribers receive it the day it is finished.

Florida House and Senate U.S. Congress Checked daily

  1. Who filed it, and when

    Sponsor and filing date, from the official record.

  2. What the bill does

    A section-by-section reading of the text, in plain language.

  3. Fiscal impact

    What it would cost or save, as far as official estimates show.

  4. Real-world impact

    Effects on people, businesses, and government if it became law.

  5. Who benefits most

    Who stands to gain, and on what evidence.

  6. Constitutional review

    Conflicts with the Florida Constitution or the U.S. Constitution.

  7. Sponsor research

    Businesses, disclosures, boards, lobbyists, donors, and district projects. Each conflict-of-interest finding is marked documented, likely, or speculative.

  8. Foreign influence

    Foreign-policy PAC money, foreign-government lobbying and travel, and the bill’s impact on foreign governments.
