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 109th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
Instructs the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to: (1) extend the preliminary permit for a specified small hydroelectric facility in central Montana for a period of three years from its current expiration; and (2) reinstate the preliminary permit for a period of three years at the permittee's request if such permit has expired.
