Simple Python script to tweet all active U.S. Senators/Reps launched on January 30, 2017 with 15 votes, #1,541 of 3,670 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 9 years on.

In plain words

This is a Python script that automates tweeting to all currently active U.S. Senators and Representatives. It's designed for developers who want to programmatically contact members of Congress via Twitter. The tool simplifies bulk outreach by handling the technical work of identifying active legislators and sending messages to their accounts. The source code is available on GitHub.

    I built a quick and dirty MVP app to tweet your Senators efficiently. I mostly did this so that we could minimize the friction on opposing CISPA which has not yet been heard in the Senate. I know I still have to add the House, but mining all their Twitter accounts is going to take longer, and with CISPA's day in Senate so near, I didn't want to delay. http://tweetasenator.com/

    Hi HN, I’ve been frustrated that I only find out how my representatives voted when the news cycle decides to cover it, so I built a simple script that texts me a digest instead. What it is: • Pick daily / weekly / bi-weekly / monthly • Get one SMS listing each vote cast by your House rep + both Senators • Messages include bill numbers, your rep’s “Yea/Nay/Present”, a one-sentence summary, and a link to congress.gov How to try it: 1. Open the link (above) 2. Fill the Google Form with name + phone 3. Text “YES” back to opt in (First month is free with code "PRODHUNT"…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
