Subject terms are assigned to bills by the Congressional Research Service, which is a government entity that serves Congress.
GovTrack uses those subjects.
Thousands of keywords are used to index all of the
bills in Congress. Select a letter to see some of those subject terms.
You'll be able to track particular subject terms so that your tracked
events page and email updates alerts you activity on legislation matching your
interests.
