Find out the bill #, then look it up via the ultra-handy, but ultra-not-user-friendly Congressional Record Site: http://thomas.loc.gov/
You have to put a "HB" in front of the bill# for House Bills
and a "SB" in front of the number for Senate Bills
If it has passed both houses, then I don't know exactly what to look for; it should be a reconciled bill that Bush will sign. Hopefully it has not, b/c that oil definitely won't benefit us over the long run but will screw up our oceans!
