How this service works
Legislation lookup by bill identifier: official metadata for House and Senate bills and resolutions — sponsor, introduction date, latest action, committees, cosponsor and amendment counts — cached one hour. The deterministic companion to keyword-based regulation search.
Output
A JSON object containing the bill's official title, type, number, congress session, list of sponsors with full names, policy area, latest action text and date, and attribution to Congress.gov as a public domain source. Data is cached for one hour.
Example use cases
Track defense bill through Congress
“What's the latest action on Senate bill S 2226 from the 118th Congress, and who sponsored it?”
Research cosponsor support for legislation
“How many cosponsors does House bill HR 1 have in the 119th Congress, and what committees is it assigned to?”
Verify bill enactment status
“Did House Joint Resolution HJRes 7 from the 119th Congress become law? Show me the title and latest action date.”

POSThttps://x402.forgemesh.io/legislation-lookupWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you have a specific bill identifier (type + number + congress) and need authoritative, structured metadata from Congress.gov. It is the deterministic alternative to keyword-based legislation search — ideal when the bill number is already known and you need official sponsor, status, and committee data quickly.

- Invalid bill type returns error or empty result — only hr, s, hjres, sjres, hconres, sconres, hres, sres are valid
- Bill number not found for the specified congress returns empty or null bill data
- Non-existent congress number returns no results
- Stale cache may return data up to one hour old for recently updated bills
- Malformed request body returns validation error
