About this Applet
Get the current senators and representatives for a state sent to Notifications. When Google Assistant activates the configured scene, the Applet asks Congress.gov for that state's members and sends their names and chambers to Notifications. It's useful for civic-minded users who want quick access to their state's Congress.gov roster in Notifications. Note: Install the IFTTT app on the device(s) where you want to receive notifications.

Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.
