Scope: US Congress member's legislative record (sponsored +
cosponsored bills across all their sessions).

IMPORTANT: Congress.gov's API does NOT expose per-member roll-call
votes indexed by member. Roll-call XMLs at clerk.house.gov /
senate.gov are unindexed by member. This tool returns the closest
structured proxy: which bills the member introduced (sponsored) or
cosponsored — the signal most commonly meant by "voting record".

Endpoints:
    GET https://api.congress.gov/v3/member/{bid}/sponsored-legislation
    GET https://api.congress.gov/v3/member/{bid}/cosponsored-legislation

Args:
    bioguide_id: member's bioguide id (e.g. `S001176` for Rep.
                 Steve Scalise) — get from `us_search_members`.
                 Format: one letter + 6 digits.
    include_cosponsored: also pull cosponsored bills (second call).
    limit: max rows per endpoint (sponsored + cosponsored counted
           separately; hard cap 250 each).

Returns dict with `sponsored_bills[]`, `cosponsored_bills[]`, plus
`sponsored_total_available` / `cosponsored_total_available` from
Congress.gov pagination so agents know if there's more to page.
Each bill row carries `title`, `latest_action_*`, `policy_area`,
`original_url` to www.congress.gov. License: US Public Domain.
