GovTrack is going to be upgrading its hardware very soon now. We’ll probably be down for about a day while we get the new hardware set up. Thanks for your patience.You may have noticed that last month especially as the health care reform bill was being debated, GovTrack had a lot of downtime. Our old-ish web server couldn’t handle all of the traffic and had to throw its arms in the air from time to time. We’re getting a computer that should be able to handle many many more visitors. It just means we have to dim the lights for a little while.

It looks like some of your APIs are down now – any further details on when we can expect service back? Thanks!
Just fixed the district lookup API. If you hit any other problems, email me the API call so I can take a look.
