236. I do not think I am the one confused. I think Chuck Todd is.

Facts are inconvenient things for some people.

08/21/1994-7:52pm House On agreeing to the conference report Agreed to by recorded vote: 235 - 195 (Roll no. 416). (consideration: CR H9005)

On that day, the House voted to approve a conference report filed in the house. To save me typing:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conference_report

In the United States Congress, a conference report refers to the final version of a bill that is negotiated between the House of Representatives and the Senate via conference committee.[1] It is printed and submitted to each chamber for its consideration, such as approval or disapproval. It contains the "statement of managers," a section-by-section explanation of the agreement.[2]

Contained within that conference report

Title XI: Firearms - Subtitle A: Assault Weapons - Public Safety and Recreational Firearms Use Protection Act - Amends the Federal criminal code to prohibit the manufacture, transfer, or possession of a semiautomatic assault weapon (SAW) as defined or listed under this Act. Sets penalties for violations and for use or possession of such a weapon during a crime of violence or drug trafficking crime. Requires the serial number of any such weapon manufactured after enactment of this Act to clearly show the date on which the weapon was manufactured.

Makes such provisions inapplicable to: (1) the transfer or possession of any SAW lawfully possessed on the date of this Act's enactment; (2) certain hunting and sporting firearms; (3) the United States, a State, or a political subdivision; (4) the transfer of a SAW by a licensed manufacturer, importer, or dealer to a government entity or to a law enforcement officer authorized to purchase firearms for official use; (5) the possession, by an individual who is retired from service with an LEA and not otherwise prohibited from receiving a firearm, of a SAW transferred to the individual by the agency upon such retirement; and (6) the manufacture, transfer, or possession of a firearm by a licensed manufacturer or importer for purposes of testing or experimentation authorized by the Secretary of the Treasury.

(Sec. 110103) Prohibits the transfer or possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device, with exceptions. Treats such devices as firearms. Sets penalties for violations. Requires any such device manufactured after the date of this Act's enactment to be identified by a serial number that clearly shows that the device was manufactured or imported after the effective date of this Act.

Here's the vote with Bernie Sanders voting for that very same conference report containing assault weapons ban text stated above on Aug 21, 1994 7:51 PM:

Bernie was recorded voting with the "Ayes"
It was the last vote the house made on the bill

And that assault weapons text wound up in the law

TITLE XI--FIREARMS

Subtitle A--Assault Weapons

Sec. 110101. Short title.
Sec. 110102. Restriction on manufacture, transfer, and possession of
certain semiautomatic assault weapons.

Here's the Aug 22 1994 NY Times coverage of the 21 Aug 1994 vote in the House that reports the assault weapons ban was included
https://www.nytimes.com/1994/08/22/us/crime-bill-overview-house-approves-crime-bill-after-days-bargaining-giving.html

The bill keeps the provision for 100,000 new police officers, expands the death penalty to cover more than 50 Federal crimes and bans the sale and possession of 19 assault weapons.

It makes me wonder if Chuck Todd understands how Congress works.
