Each Congress comes from one source, never merged: Stewart and Woon's assignment dataset (MIT) for the 103rd to the 115th; the legislators repo's own history for the 116th to the 118th. A Congress neither source covers is not shown. An older row whose committee code we could not map to this committee is not shown either; that does not mean the seat was empty.

Oversight: 0 agencies under this committee's authorizing jurisdiction
This committee is not on our list of which agencies each committee authorizes, which is not a finding that it oversees none. Committees with broad reach are left off on purpose. ‡ jurisdiction, not causation
Coverage: the member list is the current assignments in the legislators file , pulled 19 Oct 2026. Stewart and Woon's assignment dataset (MIT) covers the 103rd to the 115th. the legislators repo's own history covers the 116th to the 118th. Bills and actions cover the loaded Congresses , the 108th to the 119th here. Lobbyist matches cover the lobbying disclosure years we have collected. Something missing from a card is missing from those records for those years. It does not prove there was no activity. ‡ lobbying estimates ‡ jurisdiction, not causation ‡ votes, not motives
