Congressional research

Congressional research involves gathering, analyzing, and presenting unbiased information to help lawmakers make informed decisions. It is conducted by specialized staff and agencies that produce reports, summaries, and data on various issues, policies, and legislation. This research ensures members of Congress understand complex topics, the implications of proposed laws, and the broader context of their decisions. It supports effective policymaking by providing clear, objective, and comprehensive information, enabling Congress to craft better laws and oversight.
