Deprecate committee membership scrapers for Excel parser #19

Closed jessiclassy closed 2 months ago

jessiclassy commented 2 months ago

Due to inconsistencies between legislature committee websites, maintaining dedicated HTML scrapers for committee membership is not viable.

Instead, our team will manually collect committee assignments in a human-readable Excel sheet that can be parsed into the appropriate database structure with a Python pandas script.
