Where is best place to find out how our Reps vote? Easy to understand
I'm trying to keep up with our guys and how they're voting so I can get accurate e-mails out to my contact list and keep everyone informed.

Thanks in advance.

2. If you want the rollcall votes

This is the official Congressional site - the votes are usually up within hours of the vote. You also can get a huge amount of information on the bill itself - including the text, a summary, cosponsors etc.

This site is better when you want to know what happened on a vote - I agree with Polichick's answer if you want to watch a specific Congressperson or Senator.

3. Here's a link

http://www.ontheissues.org/default.htm

there are tabs at the top for Senate and House.
After clicking on a tap, scroll down the list and then click on the Senator or Reps name
It shows how they've voted.
