Full title
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the White House's increasing use of "czars" leads to inadequate vetting standards and unacceptable growth in the size and scope of the Federal Government.
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 111th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
Demands that the White House rescind all czar appointments until proper vetting can occur.
