  1. JOINT DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP STATEMENT ON H.R. 5334

    “Unfortunately, the bill we voted on today, H.R. 5334, gives extraordinary power to Donald Trump. It allows him to waive the sanctions contained in the bill, while giving him new, expansive tariff authority to continue his failed global trade war that is causing costs to skyrocket for working families across America.”

2 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.
