Don’t download this app!

I posted a previous review and it’s not visible, I’m hoping this one will remain. The most recent House info is from February of 2023. The most recent senate info is from February of 22’. Don’t allow it to have your location, just don’t download the app. This app either was given up on a year ago or it’s for people who don’t pay attention and forget they have the app and then it allows the app to track your device usage.

Doesn’t pull up US federal representatives anymore

Been using it for a number of years used to work well until recently. Now only pulls up local state representatives.
