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 110th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Applies Buy America requirements to an entire bridge project if they apply to a component part of the project. (Buy America requires the use of steel, iron, and manufactured products produced in the United States for certain transportation-related projects unless, among other exceptions, inclusion of domestic material will increase the cost of the overall project contract by more than 25 percent.)
