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 112th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
Calls on President Obama to classify Dr. Shakil Afridi as a refugee of special humanitarian concern to the United States and seek to resettle him in the United States. (Dr. Afridi provided very helpful intelligence with regards to locating Osama Bin Ladin in Abbottabad, Pakistan, and is now in prison in Pakistan)
