Washingtonpost.com announced the launch of a new Congressional Votes Database Tool. The online tool allows users to search the full voting records of Congress from 1991 (102nd Congress) through the current 109th Congress.

The Congressional Votes Database is searchable in several categories, including:

* By Senator or Representative
* By Bill
* By Party
* By State
* By Region
* By Baby Boomer Status
* By Votes Missed
* And just for fun, by Zodiac Sign

The daily updated tool also offers the ability to download RSS feeds for each Congressperson to track individual votes as they are recorded.
