H.R. 634 · 115th Congress

Election Assistance Commission Termination Act

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 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 Help America Vote Act of 2002 to terminate the Election Assistance Commission (EAC), including the EAC Standards Board and the EAC Board of Advisors. The Office of Management and Budget must perform EAC functions with respect to existing contracts and agreements and must wind up EAC affairs.
