Congressman Cleaver Applauds House Passage of Landmark Bipartisan Housing Package
“The passage of H.R. 6644, the Housing for the 21st Century Act, is a historic first step toward confronting a housing crisis that is squeezing families and communities nationwide. While more must be done, including real federal investments to meet the scale of this housing crisis, H.R. 6644 provides a strong foundation to build on.”

9 rows here have the same law, recipient, purpose and amount as another row. The Congressional Record may print one item more than once. The count and the total include each row.
Read from the lists Congress printed for 4 laws. An item requested by several members appears under each of them, so sums across members count such an item more than once. A requester is tied to a member only when exactly one member serving in that chamber on that day has the printed name.

Evidence for the tie: The library lists FEC committee number C00395848 for this advertiser, and the FEC committee file names this member as that committee’s candidate.
The library lists 9 ads by this advertiser since January 3, 2025.
We have not saved our own copy of these 9 ads yet, so this page shows none of them. Cause: Google’s data file carries no words, picture or video of the ad.
Read from Google Ads Transparency Center, its data file of October 6, 2026. Meta Ad Library: Not started. An ad counts when the library last shows it on or after January 3, 2025.
