Law · 114-238 · Oct 7, 2016Key: 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.
Became law without a recorded vote. It passed by voice vote or unanimous consent, which don't record how each member voted.

(This measure has not been amended since it was introduced. The expanded summary of the House passed version is repeated here.)
(Sec. 1) This bill declares that an airport owner or operator who renews a covered lease shall not be treated as violating that owner's or operator's written airport improvement project grant assurance requirement to maintain a schedule of airport passenger user charges that will make the airport as self-sustaining as possible under existing circumstances.
The bill defines "covered lease" to mean a lease:
- already existing before enactment of this bill,
- in which a nominal lease rate is provided,
- under which the lessee is a federal or state government entity, and
- that supports the operation of Air Force or Air National Guard aircraft at the airport or remotely from the airport.
