So what do we have? A bunch of weak passwords. Not bad they are revealed, actually, should educate some a bit. Still, revealing the passwords without the email addresses would've been a bit more responsible.

On the other hand, do they really store house.gov passwords unencrypted? I'm not even talking about salted vs unsalted hash here, just plaintext? Seriously?

These look like they came from some sort of third party CRM, possibly http://www.iconstituent.com/ given the number of variations of iconstituent in the password list.
