Exposed code in Senate hearing listing #630

Noticed <br> in a number of event descriptions. I also see <div> and </div> in some calendar event notes.

Huh, looks like there's a disconnect between the Senate HTML and XML. The XML is missing quite a few hearings, which are the ones with <br> and <div> tags. But since we only look at the XML, the XML must have had them at some point, and they've now been removed from it.

So: I have no idea. Under normal conditions, there are no HTML tags. But I can strip out HTML tags when they are found anyway. And, we should keep an eye out to see if the XML file missing hearings is anomalous or normal.

Looks like its fixed now! Thanks @konklone and I'll keep an eye out for this in the future
