A game that lets you learn about congress by tutorials and lectures from actual house and senate members. You get to play a representative from the state of your choice and join committees and meet with foreign aides. You select your staff and set your goals. And when its time, you can work on your re-election campaign. There is also a quiz game to see how much you've learned.
