Army Arsenal Revitalization Act of 2017
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 115th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Army Arsenal Revitalization Act of 2017
This bill requires the Department of the Army to maintain its military arsenals with sufficient workloads to ensure affordability and technical competence in all critical capability areas by establishing clear, step-by-step, prescriptive guidance on the process for conducting make-or-buy analyses (i.e., whether to manufacture a product in-house or purchase it from a third party), including the use of the organic industrial base. The bill defines "organic industrial base" as U.S. military facilities that advance a vital national security interest by producing necessary materials, munitions, and hardware, including arsenals, depots, and ammunition plants. The bill also requires the Department of Defense to establish a three-year pilot program to permit arsenals to adjust their labor rates charged to customers based upon changes in workload and other factors.
