H.R. 3149 · 114th Congress
Baggage Fee Fairness Act of 2015
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 114th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
This bill prohibits any air carrier from collecting a checked baggage fee from an air passenger if the fee amount exceeds the total amount of passenger facility charges ($1-$4.50) that could be imposed (without regard to whether the charges are actually imposed) on a passenger by eligible agencies for boarding a flight.
