add BillSponsors table to split sponors from bills #39

Closed JustZack closed 5 months ago

JustZack commented 7 months ago

There are some cases where more than one sponsor can exist for a bill, assuming when sponsors drop or "handoff" a bill? more research needed

Firstly, allow for this to be parsed in the python script

Secondly, add a new table to record all bill sponsors in

After review of such cases - some bills have the exact same sponsor TWICE Vs. having two sponsors. Google seems to support the fact that there is exactly 1 sponsor & they will never withdraw that sponsorship.
