S. 3169 · 115th Congress
New START Policy Act of 2018
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.

This bill states that unless the President determines and informs Congress that Russia is not in material compliance with New START, it is U.S. policy to extend New START from its initial termination date in February 2021 to February 2026, as allowed in the Treaty.
