H.Res. 852 · 109th Congress

Expressing the sense of the House that Members of Congress are not immune from having their offices searched.

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 the House of Representatives that, if there is an ongoing criminal investigation into a Member of Congress, then that Member's congressional office may be subject to searches and seizures by appropriate executive branch officials in possession of a valid court order.
