Congressional Research Tutorials

UC Berkeley Library has created several short Flash-enabled research tutorials. They last about 2 minutes each and provide information about how to take a more direct path when searching through the vast amount of documents produced by Congress.

They include "Find a Bill", "How Do I Contact My Representative", "Find Congressional Debate" and "Find a Hearing". There's an area devoted to "What's going on in Congress right now?" to help you stay on top of the activities of the federal legislature.

To make it easy to find, the law library has added the link to their Federal Legal Resources>Legislative Branch web page.
