Curul 501

Curul 501 is a web platform that uses data from the Mexican Congress in order to present a list of initiatives proposed with the idea of facilitating access to legislative work and simplifying its understanding, allowing one to consult the proposed text and to look them up in chronological order. The user can vote within the page if they are for or against an initiative, as well as express their opinion and send questions directly to the deputies.
