Women's Mining Coalition,
Great App
This app is so convenient, organized well and is kept up to date. When I send an update it is responded to quickly.
Paulschro,
Great app, well designed layout, efficient, sufficient, and accessible with voiceover
This app is indispensable for me. I use it for member info, and committee lists. Of course The basics like a brief biography and bill sponsor and cosponsor information is also available. It has enough detail to be useful, and it is very efficiently designed which is very useful when you need information fast. What makes the app stand out is the technical and information support. Michael Cohen has always responded immediately to any requests or corrections that I have offered. I don’t know of many other apps that I use that have support that is so quick and responsive. And for those who care about accessibility, it works very well with voiceover.
pdavisx,
117th update problems
Fantastic app, thank you to the tram who built it. Sadly, when I click “update” in the App Store or on my subscription page or inside the app, it won’t update to the 117th Congress. In the app, updating does nothing, other than to tell me my subscription will renew a month from now. In the App Store, clicking “update” appears to download something quickly, then starts over, the second tome downloading a larger file. The update repeatedly stops at about 60%. App Store app stops the download and the button reverts to “update”. What do we need to do to update to the new Congress?
RevRonaldG,
Couldn’t find what I was looking for
I wrote an email to the Cohen Research Group and was extremely please to receive a reply within minutes with the answer to my question.
I’ve used their apps for a very long time and have not been disappointed.

My go to app for staff and member info
I’ve been using this app for 5 years now. It is constantly updated and this worth every penny. The beauty is it’s quick, easy and accurate. I literally use it every day.
Dr.MikeM,
Good App, but
It’s a good app but does not work on Apple Watch 7. Please fix! It worked well with my prior SE Watch. Fix this and I’ll give it 5 stars.
?,&$@!,
Terrific App!
An absolutely essential app with great customer support!
I’m not a professional lobbyist, but I spend a lot of time on the Hill as a volunteer advocate for my union on safety issues. Congress Pro has a wealth of information available with just a few clicks. During a busy week, we may visit 14 offices each day and I certainly can’t remember every detail. I’ve developed a routine just before each visit using this app: Check the district map, review the Member’s Bio, review the Member’s Committee assignments, click on their Twitter feed to see what’s important to them right now. With this two-minute routine, I can tailor our message to the Member’s interests.
As for customer support – just today I was updating to the newest version and had a question on the subscription process (new from my older version). I sent an email using the support link and within a few minutes Dr. Cohen (app developer) emailed me and then personally called me to ensure that I was “good to go”. Now that’s customer support!
I really like the new “Committees” feature – many times our issues fall under the jurisdiction of several different Committees. With one click we can see which Members and staff are the “key players” for meeting requests.
Whether you’re a pro or a citizen advocate, this app will definitely help you navigate the Hill!

HJ California,
Involved with politics? You NEED this App.
I know many in the political arena are just now switching from RIM/Blackberry to iPhone; while the depth of Apps is not *quite* there yet for you to manage a campaign (or a war) from the iPhone, it's getting close. Congress Pro is where you start. It's a full guide to The Hill: complete with staff contacts, committee assignments, and links to web archives for instant referencing of campaign financing or voting records. The amount of information here is simply staggering... you will use this on an hourly basis. This program is just point-blank outstanding.
Simply put, *anyone/everyone* in the political arena needs this App: from K-Street lobbyists to community organizers to the actual staffers and aides who work for our senators and representatives. It wouldn't surprise me if a few of the more tech-savvy legislators themselves have Congress Pro (maybe Mr. Obama, for all I know).
The true value of Congress Pro (vs Congress+) is in the updates. The legislative branch is an ever-shifting beast and knowing exact who is in what seat (and making sure you get the names of their staffers correct) is slightly important. Bottom line and brass tacks: this program is worth several times its asking price. Congrats on buying an iPhone. This is your next purchase.

Very Helpful Tool
I've used the CongressPro app on both my iPhone and iPad, as have several colleagues. It's one of the best quick-reference guides (facebook) to Congress you're ever likely to find. Unlike the bulky hardcopies we used to carry, this is convenient and up-to-date. It includes all the information you would expect, including senior staff and committee info, as well as several handy links to external resources.
I had some problems upgrading to the 113th Congress version, but when I contacted the developer, Cohen Research Group, by email they responded very quickly and provided all the information I needed to get back on track (had to delete and reinstall, but it was painless and works without problem now). A colleague independently called and immediately received the same helpful assistance. They really seem to care about fixing problems and taking care of customers.
I highly recommend for anyone working in the government/policy arena.
