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.

Calls for the United States to: (1) cut assistance to countries whose companies are investing in Iran's energy sector; (2) withdraw its support for Iran's accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) until Iran meets weapons of mass destruction, human rights, terrorism, and regional stability standards; and (3) make the Government of Iran understand that if its nuclear activity continues it will be treated as a pariah state.

Calls for the President to more faithfully implement the Iran and Libya Sanctions Act of 1996 (ILSA). Urges Congress to: (1) increase the requirements on the President to justify waiving ILSA-related sanctions; (2) repeal the sunset provision of ILSA; (3) set a 90-day time limit for the President to determine whether an investment constitutes a violation of ILSA; and (4) make exports to Iran of technology related to weapons of mass destruction sanctionable under ILSA.
