H.R. 4205 · 113th Congress
National Design Services Act of 2014
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 113th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

What it does: CRS summary · Introduced in House · Mar 11, 2014
National Design Services Act of 2014 - Amends the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 to authorize the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to establish a loan repayment program for eligible architects who provide certain design services on behalf of a Community Design Center (a non-profit organization operated and managed by a licensed architect that conducts research and provides design services for community development projects).
Requires an eligible architect, in order to participate in the loan repayment program, to enter into a written contract with the Secretary that contains:
- an agreement under which: (1) the architect agrees to provide eligible design services on behalf of a Community Design Center for at least one year, and (2) the Secretary agrees to pay the principal and interest of the architect's qualifying educational loans for the period of time the architect provides such services;
- a provision that any U.S. financial obligation arising out of the contract, and any obligation of the architect, is contingent upon appropriations for the loan repayment program; and
- a statement of the damages to which the United States is entitled if the eligible architect breaches the contract.
