hey bobby:

we have done some preliminary integration with the data from Sunlight foundation.

Check: http://civicrm.org/node/205

Not sure if that is the level of detail or you need more detailed information etc (which as you are aware it is getting more difficult to contact members of congress directly via email etc)

Let us know your thoughts/opinions. Would be great for a couple of organizations who are interested in this to step up and help fund / develop a solution
