Ticket #807 .

This can be verified in the congressional record once posted for today: https://www.congress.gov/congressional-record/2022/01/25/daily-digest

We use a script to maintain the committee membership files so this would be lost if we ran the script, which we should do since there are other updates. The easiest thing to do is wait for the change to appear in the clerk.house.gov data.

It looks like he was moved to Ways and Means: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/117/hres875/text

If you can add that to the PR, I'll merge it. Seems like the clerk.house.gov committee membership info is actually just out of date.

It looks like running committee_membership.py will pick this change up now (along with a number of others), though without modification it would revert #820 because Rep. Don Young's death hasn't been accounted for yet.

Thanks. I ran the script and then sweep.py to remove legislators no longer serving (and pushed to main).
