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.

- receiving, maintaining, or providing a federal, state, or local government entity information regarding the citizenship or immigration status of an individual; or
- complying with a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) detainer order to temporarily hold an alien in custody, transport an alien to federal custody, or notify DHS about an alien's release.
