Overview

The Legislative Information Lookup feature allows administrators to pull legislative data into Text Box – Single or Multiple Line custom fields. This data includes the Representative Name, District Name, and District Type for both the Assembly (lower house) and the Senate (upper house) based on the organization's address.

Note: This feature is NOT available if multiple address types are enabled. You can check this setting under Global Settings > System Tab.
