About PolicyUnboxed
Making federal policies accessible and understandable to everyone.
Our Mission
PolicyUnboxed exists to open federal policies to the public, empowering you to understand what your representatives are voting for, and how new bills, executive orders, and regulations may impact your life.
We aggregate official government data and use AI-powered summaries to break down complex legal and policy language into clear, concise, and actionable information — because everyone deserves access to what happens in government.
The Challenge
Over the years, bills have grown into massive packages, often loaded with last-minute changes and amendments that can easily go unnoticed. This complexity makes it increasingly difficult for everyday citizens to understand the real impact of legislation.
Coupled with rising polarization in the media, it's harder than ever to dissect the true meaning of bills and understand what your representatives are voting on. PolicyUnboxed aims to bridge this gap by providing clear, concise, and unbiased summaries directly from official sources.
Government websites are hard to navigate and outdated, leaving you feeling like you are clicking through hundreds of links for a single piece of information. We aggregate all bill information into an understandable structure, providing easy navigation and understanding.

About the Creator
Hi, I'm Caleb Schaefer. I created PolicyUnboxed to help people understand the policies and laws that shape our society. My goal is to make government information transparent and accessible for everyone.
I believe that an informed citizen is a powerful citizen. With PolicyUnboxed, you can easily stay up-to-date on the latest bills and regulations — all summarized in clear language.
As the 2028 election approaches, I'm increasingly concerned that accurate information may be drowned out by AI-generated ads, images, and misinformation. The power of AI lies in the hands of those who wield it—so why not use it to do something meaningful and positive?
