Recognizing the significance of the 30th anniversary of Vincent Chin's death.

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 112th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Recognizes the 30th anniversary of the death of Vincent Chin (a U.S. citizen of Chinese descent whose death, caused by a beating, became a catalyst for a unified, pan-ethnic Asian Pacific American movement and united people from all communities to fight against hate crimes) as an important time to reflect on the dangers of xenophobia and scapegoating.
