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.
23 cosponsors · 8 D, 15 R
17 signed on when it was introduced; the rest joined later. Cosponsors who withdrew aren't shown.
Supports providing members of the Armed Forces the opportunity to receive vocational trade training and credentialing opportunities for no cost.
