Full title

Expressing the sense of Congress that the United States Postal Service should issue a commemorative postage stamp honoring famous Staten Island-born 19th Century Hudson River Painter Jasper Francis Cropsey, and the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee should recommend to the Postmaster General that such a stamp be issued.

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 109th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Expresses the sense of Congress that the U.S. Postal Service should issue a commemorative postage stamp honoring Jasper Francis Cropsey, the painter of the Hudson River Valley who was born on Staten Island in 1823.
