Tools (30)

• politics_represent

  Representation lookup for a US ZIP code: both U.S. Senators, the U.S. House member for that ZIP's congressional district, and the state's statewide executives (governor, attorney general, and similar). Every official carries source_url (the capture origin) and source_link (a public page).

• politics_search

  Search for politicians and elected officials across all levels of US government — federal, state, county, municipal. Filter by name, state, party, level, chamber, or office title. Returns officials with their current office, party, and contact info.

• politics_official

  Get full details for a specific official by ID — biography, party, office, policy positions, committee assignments, campaign finance, social media, and contact info. All data includes source URLs for verification.

• politics_resolve

  Resolve a messy name string (e.g. "Rep. Johnson", "cornyn") to a canonical official — returns the best match with a 0-1 confidence score and ranked alternatives. Use this first when you have a name but not an ID; then call politics_official with best.id. Add state to disambiguate.

• politics_by_state

  Get all current officials for a US state — federal senators and representatives, state legislators, and any indexed local officials. Organized by government level.

• politics_positions

  Policy positions across officials by topic, covering who supports or opposes issues such as crypto, stablecoins, AI, healthcare, and guns. Each position carries a source URL and origin hash. Returns compact records by default (id, name, party, state, stance, summary, source) with a total count; the compact parameter controls row detail and offset controls paging.

• politics_stats

  Get summary statistics for the politics.rootz.global database — total officials, breakdown by level, party, state, and chamber. Shows coverage completeness.

• politics_timeline

  Get the full origin timeline for a politician — every page snapshot, every position change, every data source with hash proof. The political wayback machine. Shows what changed, when, and where the data came from.

• politics_changes

  Get recent changes detected across all politicians — position shifts, website updates, new data. Each change links to the before/after snapshots with origin proof.

• politics_origin

  Get origin archive statistics — total snapshots, changes detected, origin proofs recorded, unique URLs tracked. Shows the depth of the political wayback machine.

• politics_bridge_create

  Create a citizen bridge page — a personalized workspace for tracking representatives, comparing positions, and taking action (write letters, log calls). Returns a shareable URL that any AI agent can collaborate on. Optionally auto-populates with the citizen's state representatives.

• politics_bridge_session

  Current state of a citizen bridge workspace: tracked officials, saved comparisons, drafted actions, and messages.

• politics_bridge_compare

  Compare multiple politicians side-by-side on a bridge page — positions, party, office, campaign finance. Optionally filter to a specific topic.

• politics_bridge_letter

  Draft a letter to a politician on the citizen's bridge page. The letter gets an origin hash for proof of content. Returns delivery options (email, web form, USPS, phone).

• politics_bill

  Details of a US bill or resolution: vote breakdown, sponsors, cosponsors, status, and origin proof. Returns metadata, a short text excerpt, and a text index by default; full legislative text is omitted because omnibus bills exceed typical token caps. The include_text parameter controls whether the complete text is returned in a single response.

• politics_bill_toc

  Section index for a bill: every "SEC. N" heading with its character offset and length, plus the whole-bill origin hash (content_hash) and total text length. A small response that describes the structure of a large bill.

• politics_bill_text

  One signed, bounded slice of a bill's full legislative text, addressed by part number or section label. Each response carries part and total_parts, next_part, the slice's part_sha256, and the whole-bill content_hash. Parts 1 through total_parts concatenated in order hash to content_hash, so a bill too large to return in a single response remains verifiable as complete and unaltered.

• politics_bills_search

  Search bills by topic, sponsor, status, or congress. Returns bill metadata and whether full text is available.

• politics_candidate_feed

  Get a candidate's Campaign Data Standard (CDS) feed: a single machine-readable record of who they are, the offices they hold and seek, their positions in their own words (each source-linked), their voting record by reference, and declared data gaps. This is the standardized, signed feed an AI or reporter uses to grab a candidate's positions and verify they are genuine. Every MCP response is signed; the standalone signed feed is also at /official/{id}/candidate.json. Tier is "rootz-compiled" until the campaign claims and signs it ("candidate-signed").

• politics_alignment

  Compare an official's stated positions against their actual roll-call votes, per topic — what they SAY vs how they VOTED, both source-linked. Does NOT label agreement/contradiction (you judge and cite); surfaces the juxtaposition no unsigned source can. Use official id.

• politics_coverage

  Coverage map: per-state, per-dataset completeness (officials by level, positions, finance, state-legislative votes). Shows WHERE the data is deep (federal — complete) vs sparse (local). Use it to know whether silence means "no data captured" rather than "nothing there".

• politics_methodology

  Get the full transparency methodology — how we collect, assess, extract, sign, and verify political data. Includes quality assessment algorithm (signals + weights), trust levels, data sources, cron schedule, and what we can and cannot prove. Open and auditable.

• politics_provenance

  Get the complete origin proof chain for an official — every data source, content hash, quality assessment, snapshot history, and verification instructions. Proves where every piece of data came from.

• politics_speeches

  Search Congressional Record floor speeches by official, topic, date range, or keyword. Returns verbatim text from the official government record with origin proof hash. Every speech is directly citable with a GPO source URL.

• politics_candidates

  Registered federal candidates for the 2026 election cycle, filterable by state, office (senate, house, president), party, or presence of a campaign URL. Returns campaign website, social media links, FEC data, and position and speech counts.

• politics_state_votes

  Search state legislature votes across 26+ US states. Filter by state, topic, or date. Returns bill title, vote result, yes/no counts.

• politics_municipalities

  Search US municipalities (cities, towns, villages, counties). Every incorporated place in the US with coordinates. Filter by state, name, or type. Returns website, platform, meeting calendar, and board/commission info where available.

• politics_create_watchlist

  Creates a Just the Facts watchlist bound to an email address, covering any combination of specific officials, issue topics, and a town with state for local meetings, agendas, and minutes. Sends a double-opt-in confirmation email and returns the bridge workspace URL.

• politics_polls

  Search the SIGNED public-poll archive. Unlike aggregators, every poll keeps the EXACT question wording, population base (LV/RV/adults), sample size, margin of error, mode, and per-option toplines — first-party sourced, snapshot-hashed, and cryptographically signed (verifiable). Filter by race_key, state, subject (e.g. "approval", "Senate"), pollster, or since (ISO date). Returns a list; call politics_poll {id} for full detail + signature. Use this when a question hinges on what a poll ACTUALLY asked vs how it was reported.

• politics_poll

  Get one poll in full: pollster, sponsor, field dates, population, sample size, margin of error, mode, the VERBATIM question(s) asked, per-option toplines, the first-party source_url, and the signature (poll_proof) that binds the exact wording and numbers. This is the ground truth to check any claim about a poll against.
