Data notes
The final version of the law, as each chamber passed it.

Where the record has a member-by-member vote, the “Who voted for it” section shows who voted yea.
Summary

Allows the Joint Committee to authorize the Architect of the Capitol to enter into the agreement and related contracts required under such law on its behalf, under such terms and conditions as it may require.
