H.R. 6222 · 114th Congress
Regulatory Fingerprints Act of 2016
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 requires a federal agency to include in each publication in the Federal Register pertaining to a rule: (1) the specific legal authority for the rule, and (2) the name and title of each agency officer or employee who participated in the rule making and each person performing any work pertaining to the rule under an agency contract.
