H.R. 4309 · 115th Congress
Regulatory Relief 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.
No cosponsors.
This bill requires a federal agency to repeal at least two existing rules when promulgating a new rule. For each fiscal year, an agency must offset the total incremental cost of its new rules, unless otherwise required by law or the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
