Migrate upcoming hearings to use the Pro Publica API #707

Closed konklone closed 7 years ago

konklone commented 7 years ago

Migrates upcoming hearings to the Pro Publica Congress API.

This also basically just fixes the hearings screen, which has been busted for unknown reasons.

This also makes a tweak to always show the dates and times in Eastern Time (and to mark the time as ET explicitly), to avoid mistakes or ambiguity around hearings that almost always happen in Washington, DC.

The API doesn't allow filtering by chamber, so this merge the two tabs into one combined feed of House and Senate hearings. I think this makes a fair amount of sense, unless I get user feedback otherwise.

Fixes #671.

Updated to outfit the hearings feed with infinite scroll.
