Workforce Development Through Post-Graduation Scholarships Act of 2018
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.

Workforce Development Through Post-Graduation Scholarships Act of 2018
This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to exclude post-graduation scholarship grants from gross income in the same manner as scholarships are currently excluded.
A "post-graduation scholarship grant" is a grant provided by a program that: (1) is established by certain tax-exempt organizations; (2) is designed to encourage individuals to serve in occupations of unmet needs or in areas of unmet needs; and (3) under which, in accordance with the conditions of a grant, the organization repays any portion of an education loan incurred by an individual to pay higher education expenses.
