Quick and dirty answer. For the short term (I'm assuming you're talking about $alpha):

$temp = $alpha
if($temp =~ /C/)  {$temp =~ s/C/Congress/}
elsif ($temp =~ /H/) {$temp =~ s/H/House/}
elsif {$temp =! /S/} {$temp =~ s/S/Senate/}
  print OUT "<A NAME=\"$alpha\">\n<FONT
COLOR=\"#000066\"><H2>- $temp -</H2>
</FONT>\n</A>\n";

You'll probably want to replace this with a pattern or something better if it gets more complicated. (Ie a hash with the mapping).
