Bill Activity Feeds

Written by Ruby Choonoo

What does it do?

A bill’s activity feed is a place for you to view the bill’s actions, annotations made on bill text, other comments you or your teammates have added to the bill, and any files that have been uploaded by you or your team. By default, the activity feed is sorted chronologically, like a timeline, but it can be sorted and filtered by type of activity and contributor. 

Why should I use it?

A bill’s activity feed is essentially the central source of information regarding your bill; it can hold your notes, highlighted sections of bill text, conversations with teammates, associated files and documents. The feed is also set within the context of the bill actions, changes to committee, bill sponsorship, and amendments.

This is great for the super organized policy professional.

How do I use it? Tips.

When viewing a bill, the activity feed can be found in the right panel, in the third tab. 

Try:

  • Posting comment for yourself or your teammates

  • Highlight a portion of bill text and leave an annotation on the bill

  • Upload a relevant file (up to 200MB)

  • Use the sort and filter dropdowns to quickly view specific activity items
