For most bill dates, it's a full on timestamp, at midnight UTC, which is incorrect. It should be limited to the date only, with no timestamp.
Since America is west of UTC, these dates represented in any American timezone would be the day before they actually are, which is a serious inaccuracy.

The issue here is, the Senate only gives dates, the House gives actual timestamps. We need the times to be stored in a consistent format, so that we can sort on them across chambers. It doesn't make sense to throw away timestamp information from the House, especially if there's a chance that someday the Senate may start including timestamp information.
So for right now, stick with the way we've got it, and document it effectively.
