It's updated by https://github.com/unitedstates/congress-legislators/blob/main/scripts/committee_membership.py from XML data from the House and Senate. We run the script manually periodically. I just ran it and pushed the update.

Ah, cool. I didn't realize that xml data existed. Thanks for pointing me in the direction of the python code and for running an interim update too.
The updates definitely filled in some gaps!
I'll take a deeper look at the python script and upstream sources at some point.
In the meantime, I'll just cite some of those that still have no subcommittee members listed.

Looking at the committees_current
source, perhaps it simply needs to be reviewed/updated to reflect current committees before re-running the script?
I wonder if we could use this:
https://api.congress.gov/#/committee/committee_list
as a good source for updates?
https://api.congress.gov/v3/committee/118?limit=250&api_key=TBD
I'll try to compare the data in the congress.gov apis to the data in committee_current at some point (if someone doesn't beat me to it).
UPDATE:
I've only spot checked a few, but just observing that SSCM26
(for example) is listed in the congress.gov apis too, but it does not seem to be represented in either of these two sources:
- https://www.senate.gov/general/committee_membership/committee_memberships_SSCM.xml
- https://www.commerce.senate.gov/commerce-subcommittees
SSCM26
are simply stale/old/defunct?
Thanks again!

It's also possible the subcommittee has no members or that it exists only on paper. But defunct might be the most likely.
