Find every legislator representing a geographic coordinate — both tiers. Pass latitude and longitude to get the state senators and representatives for that location (and potentially governor/executive officials), plus the coordinate's two US Senators and its US Representative. jurisdiction.classification separates the tiers: "state" is a state legislature, "country" is the US Congress. current_role.org_classification does not — it is "upper"/"lower" for a US Senator exactly as for a state senator. Useful for constituent-to-representative matching, address-based policy research, and electoral boundary analysis. This server does not geocode addresses — the caller must provide decimal-degree coordinates. Use include=offices to get contact information alongside the legislator list.
