Congressional Web Harvest

As the repository of the official records of Congress, the Center for Legislative Archives provides access to archived congressional websites that were preserved at the end of each Congress.

The web archive began in 2006 with the 109th Congress, and the collection is available online. These snapshots of Congress' websites capture the evolution of the web as a medium for Congress to communicate with the public. The Center holds over 158 terabytes of archived websites.

The most recent harvest from the 117th Congress preserved over 72 terabytes of web data. Recent harvests have expanded in scope to capture not only content hosted and stored on Member and committee websites, but also content hosted on a number of social media sites used by Congress.
