S. 1100 · 115th Congress
Small Shipyards and Maritime Communities Act
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.

Small Shipyards and Maritime Communities Act
This bill revises and reauthorizes through FY2020 the small shipyards program to provide assistance (1) to small shipyards for capital improvements and (2) for maritime training programs to foster technical skills and operational productivity relating to shipbuilding, ship repair, and associated industries.
In providing assistance under the program, the U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) must take into account the economic circumstances and conditions of maritime communities.
Grants may be used for a project only if the steel, iron, and manufactured goods used for the project are produced in the United States, except where MARAD waives such requirements.
