S. 2226 · 115th Congress
Disaster Assistance Simplification 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.
4 cosponsors · 1 D, 3 R

This bill prohibits a recipient of a disaster-recovery grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development from denying an applicant for assistance, or reducing the amount of assistance offered to the applicant, on the basis that the applicant declined disaster-recovery relief assistance from the Small Business Administration.
