Find Your Senator with Google Maps
Govtrack.us are using Google Maps to help voters Find a Representative or Senator.
Using the map it is possible to find a current or past Member of Congress. If you click on a state on the map you can find out who the current senators for the state are. You can then click on a senator to add them to your customized tracked events page on govtrack.us. It is also possible to search for a representative by name, zip postal code or street address.
Govtrack.us have also made available the state shape files for the map, which are available in KML or WMS map layer form.
