The upcoming Help! webinar is called Climbing Capitol Hill: The Basics of Congressional Research. Hope you can join us on August 8 from 12:00 – 1:00 p.m. (Eastern)
Do questions about congressional research make you wish you had paid more attention in civics class in high school? Have no fear, while researching (or helping others research) the activities of our Congress may seem daunting, it really isn’t once you know the basics and a few tricks. This webinar will break down the types of Congressional information that are out there, discuss what types of information they contain and provide strategies for helping researchers find and use them.
