H.R. 3226 · 116th Congress
Safe Water for Military Families 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 requires the Department of Defense (DOD) to ensure that, no later than January 1, 2029, it uses only non-fluorinated firefighting foam, which does not contain a perfluoroalkyl or polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) with at least one fully fluorinated carbon atom.
