LegiScan Bill Tracker

A skill to monitor state legislative activity using the LegiScan API. It filters for active bills based on custom keywords and state selection.

Setup

  1. API Key: Obtain a free API key from LegiScan.
  2. Environment Variable: Set LEGISCAN_API_KEY in your environment.
  3. Dependencies: Requires requests.

Usage

Run the script directly or via a scheduled task (cron).

# Default (TX, cryptocurrency keywords)
python3 search.py

# Custom State and Keywords
python3 search.py --state TX --keywords "crypto, bitcoin, blockchain"

# Include passed/completed bills
python3 search.py --state TX --keywords "crypto, bitcoin, blockchain" --all

Configuration Options

  • --state: Two-letter state abbreviation (Default: TX or LEGISCAN_STATE env var).
  • --keywords: Comma-separated list of terms to search for.
  • --all: If flag is present, includes bills that have passed or are completed.

Best Practices

  • The script uses environment variables for sensitive credentials.
  • It provides CLI arguments for flexibility without modifying code.
  • It includes error handling for API failures and missing configuration.
