not that of the Congress itself, or at least it's created or managed by the Library. I was also able to find a reference to Section 9 by doing a term search for "bill of attainder" in the annotation section, https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-1/ALDE_00000242/['Bill',%20'of',%20'Attainder'] So I think it's probably a fuckup, not a deliberate attempt to erase parts of the Constitution. I might try to find an email address to inquire about it.

Added: I did find a way to contact them, so I sent off an email inquiring about what happened to sections 9 and 10. I should get a response in about 5 business days.
