Grant Vergottini of Xcential Group has posted Imagine All 50 States Legislation in a Common Format, at his Legix.info blog.
In this post, Mr. Vergottini discusses BillTrack50, a new U.S. state-level bill tracking service developed by Karen Suhaka of LegiNation. BillTrack50 provides access to pending legislative bills — in a common XML format, Mr. Vergottini’s SLIM XML format — for all U.S. state legislatures. BillTrack50 charges a fee for access.
For more information, please see the complete post.

Actually, access to the data is free. You can search for bills, see details including bill text, and see full legislator information just by singing up for a free account. Saving queries so you can set up alerts requires a paid subscription.
