H.R. 2138 · 116th Congress
Dental Care for Low-Income Veterans 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 116th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
This bill expands eligibility for Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) outpatient dental services and treatment to low-income veterans. Currently, only certain veterans, including those suffering from service-connected issues, are eligible for dental services through the VA.
