H.R. 2540 · 116th Congress
Food and Fuel Consumer Protection Act of 2019
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.
7 cosponsors · 3 D, 4 R
3 signed on when it was introduced; the rest joined later. Cosponsors who withdrew aren't shown.
This bill revises the renewable fuel program, which requires transportation fuel to contain a minimum volume of renewable fuel.
