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.

Withdraws from all forms of appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining laws, the mineral leasing laws, and the geothermal leasing laws, subject to valid existing rights, the public land (including interests in land) known as the Cuddeback Lake Air Force Range and additional public land in San Bernardino County, California, identified as the Proposed Navy Acquisition Area (but excluding the parcel identified as "AF Fee Simple"). Requires the Secretary of the Navy to ensure that the owners of the excluded private land continue to have reasonable access to their land and to manage the additional withdrawn lands to protect existing historic, economic, cultural, recreational, hunting, and scientific features and uses.
