H.Res. 352 · 108th Congress
Remembering and honoring the March on Washington of August 28, 1963.
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.
39 cosponsors · 38 D, 1 R
31 signed on when it was introduced; the rest joined later. Cosponsors who withdrew aren't shown.
