User:Markles moved United States House Committee on Education and the Workforce to its new name United States House Committee on Education and Labor, as well as moved several other House committees to their new names. They did not not, however, followed through with cleaning up the double redirects (see, for example, the 'What links here' for United States House Committee on Education and Labor, where there are three dozen double redirects that need to be fixed). Although the move page says: "You are responsible for making sure that links continue to point where they are supposed to go.", it looks like other editors might have to step in to clean up this mess.

Currently, the section on "Committee Activity" speaks of "the bill" without giving any indication whatsoever as to what "the bill" is. Somebody please add that. 69.110.37.56 18:57, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
It seems fairly obvious that the renaming in 1995 had everything to do with the Republicans not liking to talk about "Labor", and that the change back in 2007 had to do with the Democrats retaking the House. Some mention of the partisan basis for the name change might perhaps be made? john k ( talk) 06:00, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
The EFCAUpdates site on the external links section is a blog run by a law firm that represents management in employment discrimination cases and is fairly biased in their writing about the bill. It's also a little bit random and I think it's more appropriate for the EFCA page, not the Committee page. Rainbowsprinkles ( talk) 05:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
The hyperlink for the "Civil Rights and Human Services" subcommittee appears to link to: " /info/en/?search=United_States_House_Education_Subcommittee_on_Civil_Rights_and_Human_Services", but instead actually goes to " /info/en/?search=List_of_United_States_House_of_Representatives_committees" (where the Civil Rights and Human Services subcommittee hyperlink redirects to the exact same page).
I wasn't sure how exactly to correct this, nor how to flag it for review. I figured this would be the best place to call someones attention to it.
