We are delighted to announce that the Levin Center’s Congressional Oversight Records Database (CORD) has expanded its collection by adding oversight reports from the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. The release includes 39 oversight reports dating from the 105th to the 118th Congress (1998 – 2024) now available to the public free of charge.
This new committee release adds a total of 39 oversight reports to the existing database. With this addition, CORD now houses a unique collection of 1,400 congressional oversight reports for scholars and academics to use in their research. The below graph highlights how the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources’ reports distribute across the database’s main policy areas.

CORD is an effort by the Levin Center to make available for scholars, oversight practitioners, and the public oversight documents that are not easily accessible. For questions regarding the data collection methodology and protocols, please contact Grace Moore, Levin Center Research and Data Specialist.
