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.

Federal Firearms Licensee Protection Act
This bill amends the federal criminal code to modify provisions related to theft of firearms.
Under current law, it is unlawful to steal a firearm from a licensed importer, manufacturer, or dealer, or from their business premises. This bill broadens the scope of unlawful conduct to also prohibit stealing a firearm from a gun range that rents firearms or a shooting club.
Additionally, the bill modifies criminal penalties for an offense:
- to increase from 10 to 20 years the maximum prison term, and
- to create a 3- or 5-year mandatory minimum prison term for an offense that occurs during the commission of a burglary or robbery.
Finally, an attempt to commit an offense is subject to the same penalties as a substantive offense.
