In the dynamic world of policy work, timing is everything. The ability to anticipate legislative movement gives policy professionals a strategic edge. However, gauging the momentum of a bill is no small feat. Plural’s Momentum Indicator offers a novel way to assess a bill’s traction and potential for progress.
The Challenge of Predicting Legislative Progress
Identifying which bills are gaining traction is crucial for strategic planning and advocacy. Yet, without the right tools, policy professionals must rely on manual tracking and intuition. This often leads to missed opportunities and misallocated resources.
Plural’s Momentum Indicator: Your Legislative Monitoring Tool
Plural’s Momentum Indicator helps policy teams cut through the uncertainty. The Momentum Indicator provides a visual cue that indicates a bill’s momentum at a glance. Utilizing AI and comprehensive legislative data, the Momentum Indicator offers a predictive insight into the potential movement of legislation.
How It Works
Examining Historical Data
To develop the Momentum Indicator, the Plural team began by examining data from previous sessions. This includes:
- Which bills went up for a passage vote in one or more chambers
- The actions on those bills
- Whether those bills were signed by executives
Training an AI Model
A machine learning model was trained using the historical legislative data. The model was trained to find patterns and make predictions about which historical bills would be most likely to come up for a vote. By the end of this process, Plural developed a predictive machine learning system capable of identifying bills with potential momentum.
