House roll calls join only on matching Congress, legislation type, and number. Senate roll calls join only on matching source-supplied document type and number, not question text. Committee and related-measure relationships have no date in their relationship records and therefore are counted above but never placed on the chronology.

Additionally, grant recipients must ensure that participating students are entitled to withdraw funds from their accounts under certain circumstances.
