While the scope of Congress'powers is an appropriate matter for House debate, the listingof specific textual authorities for routine Congressionallegislation about which there is no legitimate constitutionalconcern is a diminishment of the majesty of our FoundingFathers' vision for our national legislature.[Page H2395]]]> hsvr00 Veterans' Affairs Committee House Standing hsvr10 Economic Opportunity Subcommittee Hearings by 2013-06-26T14:34:33Z Referred to 2013-05-08T18:53:27Z Referred to 2013-04-26T14:04:25Z hsas00 Armed Services Committee House Standing hsas02 Military Personnel Subcommittee Referred to 2013-05-06T20:26:52Z Referred to 2013-04-26T14:04:20Z To amend title 38, United States Code, to reestablish the Professional Certification and Licensure Advisory Committee of the Department of Veterans Affairs. 113 2942 HR 2014-06-02 Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Veterans' Affairs.
