H.Res. 810 · 110th Congress

Calling for an end to the state of emergency in Pakistan.

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

Expresses opposition to the declaration of a state of emergency by President Pervez Musharraf, calls for a return to constitutional order, and urges the government of Pakistan to ensure that free elections are held in January 2008, as scheduled.
