S. 2582 · 113th Congress
ADAPT Act
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 Senate · Jul 10, 2014
American Diversification and Progress in Trade Act of 2014 or the ADAPT Act - Directs the Administrator of the Small Business Administration (SBA) to establish a pilot program to assist in expanding and diversifying the business of small businesses the majority of whose business consists of amounts awarded under federal contracts and subcontracts, particularly in geographic areas, including rural areas, where amounts awarded for federal contracts and subcontracts are a significant driver of the local economy.
Requires the Administrator to report to Congress on how SBA is addressing the need for such small businesses to expand and diversify business during periods of decline in appropriations for federal contracting, including an analysis of how such declines would impact growth among such small businesses, particularly those owned and controlled by service-disabled veterans, women, or socially and economically disadvantaged.
