The statehouse and the commission. Watched for you.
Cloak & Docket tracks state government on two fronts: the Statehouse, where bills and committees move, and the Regulatory side, where the real money decisions get made on the utility-commission docket. Every filing summarized in plain English, linked to the official document, and searchable right down to the text inside the docket. The tracking that used to eat your week now takes a scroll.
Strictly nonpartisan. Just the facts, linked to every official document.

The coverage
This is not a promise of what we will cover. It is what is in the system right now: every state's bills, appellate opinions, rulemaking, and utility-commission dockets.
Every record is searchable, in one state or across all 50 at once.

The problem
If you track state government for a living, you already know the drill. A bill moves in a committee you weren't watching. A rate case lands on a docket buried in a monthly PDF. A board posts a meeting notice three days before it meets. And you find out after it mattered, from a client who is not happy.
How it works
Some people live in the legislature. Some people live on the commission docket. Most serious shops have to watch both, and until now that meant two tools, two subscriptions, or a stack of browser tabs. Cloak & Docket puts both in one place, side by side, and links them together.
The Statehouse
Every bill, every appellate opinion, every board and committee meeting, summarized and filtered down to the industries your clients care about. Follow a bill and it rises to the top the moment it moves, with an alert the second it does.
Regulatory
Every utility-commission docket, down to the individual filings. Open a rate case, read the whole filing history, click straight through to the real PDFs, and search the text inside every filing. The administrative layer where the decisions that move millions actually get made.
And the two are linked: when a bill touches a utility case, you jump from the bill to the docket in one click, and back.
The docket layer
Anyone can show you the legislature. That is the easy part, and everyone has it. The hard part, the part that takes a paralegal half a day to pull together, is the docket: who filed what, when, and what it actually says. Cloak & Docket does it for you.

No jargon, no setup headaches. Here is what shows up in your day once you are on it.
