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 amends the Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 1987 to allow computers and related peripheral tools previously used by a Member of the House of Representatives to be donated to a public elementary or secondary school without regard to whether the donation: (1) is a cost to the government, or (2) has a recoverable value.
