S. 3276 · 115th Congress
Enhancing America's Core Diplomatic Capabilities 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.
No cosponsors.
This bill sets forth or revises specified personnel requirements with respect to members of the Foreign Service at the Department of State, including the establishment of an incentive program to encourage members to maintain critical foreign language skills and the recognition of the status of Foreign Service Officers as commissioned officers of the U.S.
