Full title

Expressing the appreciation of the Nation to the members of the Armed Forces serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom and encouraging communities across the Nation to prepare appropriate homecoming ceremonies to welcome the members of the Armed Forces returning from those operations and to recognize their contributions to homeland security and expansion of freedoms around the globe and to prepare days of remembrance to commemorate the brave service and selfless sacrifice of the members of the Armed Forces who do not return.

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.

Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.

Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 108th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
