Full title

Supporting the recognition of 2016 as the "Year of Pulse Crops" and acknowledging the nutritional benefit and important contribution to soil health of pulse crops.

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.

Supports the recognition of the Year of Pulse Crops, participation in events and activities organized pursuant to the United Nations observance of the International Year of Pulses, and future funding to support the cultivation and consumption of pulse crops.
