Full title
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that in order to create certainty in the United States economy so that small businesses and job creators can invest and hire, Congress should enact long-term, predictable tax policy and, in the event that Congress and the President choose to raise taxes, they should give United States citizens at least one year after the enactment or expiration of the legislation to prepare for and adjust to any impact that such increase in taxes may have.
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.
