# Upcoming bill votes that may move stocks

`GET /upcoming-votes/items`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.signal8.ai/api/v1/public`
- URL: `https://api.signal8.ai/api/v1/public/upcoming-votes/items`
- Auth: API key in header `X-Api-Key`

Bills and Senate motions coming up for a vote in Congress that could
move specific stocks or sectors.

For each upcoming vote you get:
- **When** it's expected — a date range (exact timing often isn't set
  yet) plus how confident and precise that estimate is (`window`).
- **What it affects** — the sectors and tickers, and how. Every ticker
  is checked against the actual bill text, so none are made up.
- **Pass odds** (`passOutlook`) and how it's being considered (bills on
  the "suspension calendar" pass ~98% of the time).
- A plain-language summary of what the bill does.
- A flag (`conflictBadge`) when the bill's sponsor has disclosed a trade
  in one of the affected stocks.

An empty list is normal — it just means no market-moving votes are
scheduled in your date range, not an error.

Note: sponsor trades are restatements of public STOCK Act disclosures
(showing both the trade date and the disclosure date) — they are not
evidence of wrongdoing.

**Credit cost: 10**
