Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Agreed to without a recorded vote. It was agreed to by voice vote or unanimous consent, which don't record how each member voted.
