Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
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.
No cosponsors.
Directs the Secretary of Agriculture to transfer all right, title, and interest of the United States in and to certain land in the Ottawa National Forest, Gogebic County, Michigan, for cultural preservation, without consideration, to the Lac Vieux Desert Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians.
