Users noticed that several of the members available via [https://api.congress.gov/v3/member/?format=json] have repeating text in their imageUrl.

Example:

https://www.congress.gov/img/member/https:/congress.gov/img/member/e000198_200.jpg%3c/ImageUrl I see it at this endpoint: https://api.congress.gov/v3/member/?format=json&api_key=INSERT_KEY as well as the individual member endpoints, like: https://api.congress.gov/v3/member/F000062?format=json&api_key=INSERT_KEY It looks like only 6 are affected, with updateDates between 2023-09-19T19:40:26Z and 2023-09-29T13:24:39Z. Note that there was one member who was updated during that time period who wasn’t affected.
