| # Congress Public Records Slice Space
|
|
|
| Neutral Records explorer for a public-record slice of congressional money-and-power linkages.
|
|
|
| ## Runtime Notes
|
|
|
| - This Space first checks for a bundled local `dataset_bundle` inside the Space repo, then falls back to the configured Hugging Face dataset repo.
|
| - For local testing, set the `PUBLIC_RELEASE_LOCAL_ROOT` environment variable to the release root folder before launching `app.py`.
|
| - The Space is intentionally neutral and does not assign guilt, wrongdoing, intent, or causality.
|
|
|
| ## Required Caveats
|
|
|
| - This release is a slice of public-record data, not a complete accounting of all potentially relevant data.
|
| - Future releases may update or expand this slice as source recovery, parsing, and evidence linkage improve.
|
| - This release does not assign guilt, wrongdoing, intent, or causality to any person or organization.
|
| - The release shows public-record overlaps, timing, and linkage strength, not proof of illegality or corruption.
|
| - Some rows remain review-tier or include unresolved official source references and should be read with those labels in mind.
|
| - The public package includes verification summaries and SHA-backed artifact indexes, but it does not include the full internal raw corpus, so external verification is bounded by what is published here. |
