H.R. 5835 · 114th Congress

Fair Distribution of Affordable Housing Funds Act of 2016

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

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 amends the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992 to eliminate the minimum state allocation requirement with respect to amounts allocated by the Department of Housing and Urban Development to the Housing Trust Fund to be distributed to each state (including the District of Columbia) to provide affordable housing.
