3.Identify the congressional committees to which the member of Congress representing your district has been assigned. If the member is on the appropriations committee, identify the subcommittee as well. Try to determine why those committees are interesting to him or her. Thinking about economic interests and major employers in the district is a good start. (your member of Congress almost certainly has a website that lists his or her committee and subcommittee assignments. Check that first). Another basic source is Congress's own website (http://thomas.loc.gov). It lists all committees and the membership of each. ("Thomas" is for Thomas Jefferson, the spirit behind the Library of Congress).
