Do you know who your president is? Great! Do you know who your senators and your representative are? Not bad! Do you know who your state level representatives are? Didn't think so. Enter House of Cards, an app that uses the Sunlight Foundation API and JavaScript geolocation to retrieve your personal state and federal representatives. Study notes rendered with dynamic CSS, flip through custom flashcards and quizzes based on what you want to learn, keep track of your highest scores, and clear existing scores via an AJAX request. Because the only way to make sure your voice is heard is by knowing who your voice is.
