Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

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.

What it does: CRS summary · Introduced in Senate · Apr 25, 2017

Expresses the sense of the Senate that:

  • Canada should grade Canadian produced wheat in the same manner as U.S. produced wheat and be fair to U.S. agricultural producers, and
  • the President should examine whether Canadian wheat grading laws adhere to trade agreements and insist on full access for U.S. wheat exporters to the Canadian market.
