It's possible the whole site is down this morning. I've been trying to check it manually and not getting anything.

@hugovk, I called GPO to ask about the member guide website, and someone there estimated that it would be updated for the 114th in June. So assuming that that's true, gpo_members.py
probably isn't going to work for the 114th for a while. I assume that Booker (ref #8) — like Rep. Brat, etc. — isn't on the GPO member guide for the 113th because he took office through a special election. Which I believe means that missing legislators will remain a mostly manual job unless we find a new data source.
@rshorey bioguide is also down for me, but the GPO member guide is up.

Hm. You guys don't pull from this site? http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=P000612. The logic for scraping the images and all that seems relatively simple/predictible as Perdue's link is:
http://bioguide.congress.gov/bioguide/photo/P/P000612.jpg
Just curious.

@jonrobinson2 Have to be careful with that because bioguide photos may be subject to copyright. From http://bioguide.congress.gov/copyright.htm:

All of the photos for historical MoCs on GovTrack come from bioguide.... under a hopeful premise that the really old photos are out of copyright. :) https://www.govtrack.us/data/photos/

Interesting. That is sufficiently vague language. My thought is that it might be the other way around...that the older images would be where the bioguides site would have a copyright claim over an image that only they own? I'm probably wrong on this though.
