Is there something like this for the US?

Even if there were, it wouldn't be very useful. In a "common law" system like the US, legal questions are rarely answered purely by the plain text of a law. You also need case law - that is, how the law is typically applied in practice by the courts.

There was a project at Google Chicago to do something like that, around 15 years ago. For some reason, it was never launched.
