API Data Discrepancy: Status via /bill/{congress}/{billType}/{billNumber}/text

Hello, I am a developer using the congress.gov API for a civic tech project.

I've noticed a potential data discrepancy concerning: 119_HRES_713 119_SJRES_71 119_SJRES_49 119_HRES_282 119_SJRES_10

These are failed bills/resolutions. However, the main status field for this legislation has not been updated to reflect this final disposition, it's still showing introductory one. This may be part of the bigger problem with this endpoint. Just wanted to bring this to your attention. Thank you for your work on this invaluable resource. Sincerely, Jacek Michalowski
