Bera was the 25th of 62 cosponsors of the bipartisan H.R.4581, which became law on 12 July 2024 and clarifies that activities to prevent stillbirths are a permissible use of Federal funds.
Inserted under Tenure 8/9/24
During his first five terms in office (2013-2022), Bera was a cosponsor of 95 legislative items that became law and an original cosponsor of none.[2] Acts designating a name for a Federal property accounted for 44 of the 95, typically with 50 or more cosponsors. Another 37 were general consensus items cosponsored by at least one third of the 435-member House, of which 27 were cosponsored by at least two thirds. Bera cosponsored only one successful item with fewer than 30 cosponsors. He was the final of 7 cosponsors for H.R.3399 in the 116th Congress, which became law on 30 October 2020.[3] The law authorized the Nutria Eradication and Control Act of 2003 to continue through 2025 and made California eligible for program grants. Nutria are an invasive species of large, semiaquatic rodents whose burrowing could threaten levees in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, where productive farmland lies below sea level.

Worship in the New Testament usually means expressions of praise or thanksgiving, as the appropriate human response to the magnificent glory of God.[2]
Worship is an encounter with the living God through the risen Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit.[3]
In the United Methodist Church, worship is widely diverse, built on the unity of a basic pattern[3], which includes Word (speaking and singing) and Table (Communion, the symbolic shared meal), both having New Testament origins (Acts 2:46-47, Ephesians 5:18-19).
Singing hymns during worship helps create and maintain Christian behavior by individuals and communities. [4]: x [5]: v Denominational hymnals document their compilers' best current understanding of Christianity by selecting both familiar and recent hymns. [4]: viii [5]: v

Beginning in 1945, Butchart explored the Grand Canyon's backcountry on foot. He wrote extensively about his adventures and influenced generations of canyoneers.

The waste water in this incident is classic acid mine drainage, which is common around the world where subsurface mining exposes metal sulfide minerals such as pyrite to water and air. The release volume was equivalent to less than 1 hour of Animas River streamflow above Cement Creek (120 ft3/s) on the day of the spill or 11 minutes of streamflow downstream at Durango, Colorado, the next day (600 ft3/s).[7] Extensive research has been published for the Cement Creek basin and similar watersheds affected by acid mine drainage at Summitville, Colorado, and elsewhere.[8]
Stream conditions that had been common[9] in the area 20 years earlier returned temporarily following the spill.
The chemical processes involved in acid mine drainage are common around the world where subsurface mining exposes metal sulfide minerals such as pyrite to water and air.
