Bias gauge
See an estimate ranging from neutral toward highly biased on analyzed bills.
Bias Assessment
Add another lens before deciding where you stand.
Constituent gives analyzed bills a Bias Assessment: an informational estimate of how slanted the legislation may be and who may stand to receive an unfair advantage.
A distinct question
Bias and personal agreement are not the same thing.
A bill can align with your preferences and still be written in a way that appears slanted. It can also conflict with your preferences without being assessed as highly biased. Constituent keeps the Bias Assessment separate from its personalized For or Against estimate so you can consider both kinds of information.
Potential advantage
Review information about who may stand to gain an unfair advantage from the legislation.
Separate from values
Compare the assessment with your personal values alignment instead of treating them as one score.
How to use it
Treat the score as a prompt for closer review.
Read the summary
Begin with what the bill proposes, why it matters, and the available civic-impact information.
Review the assessment
Consider the bias estimate and the explanation shown with the analyzed bill.
Check the official record
Confirm important conclusions against the legislation and records published by the jurisdiction.
An estimate can be incomplete or wrong.
The Bias Assessment is informational and AI-assisted. It is not a legal conclusion, a statement of objective fact, or a substitute for reading the legislation. Constituent does not tell you what political position to take. Always confirm important civic, legal, and election information with the relevant official source.
