S. 2729 · 115th Congress
Addiction Prevention and Responsible Opioid Practices 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.
No cosponsors.
This bill establishes a series of requirements relating to opioid regulation, prescribing, and monitoring, including licensure requirements for pharmaceutical representatives, a national opioid drug mapping tool to monitor prescribing practices of Medicaid providers, and an excise tax on opioid manufacturers.
