You can already do this - Congressional voting records are publicly available. However, even if you correlated these records with specific legislation, you would be making a dangerous mistake by missing the big picture.

Many laws are passed jn bundles and require compromise. Just because your Senator voted to support farm subsidies, doesn't mean he likes them - it just means he wanted a minimum wage increase to pass more.
