H.R. 3442 · 116th Congress
DETER 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.

Defending Elections against Trolls from Enemy Regimes Act or DETER Act
This bill makes an alien inadmissible to the United States or deportable if there are reasonable grounds to believe that the alien seeks to enter the country to improperly interfere with a U.S. election or has previously done so.
Improper interference in a U.S. election is conduct by an alien that violates federal criminal, voting rights, or campaign finance law, or is performed on behalf of a foreign government or criminal enterprise. Improper interference in a U.S. election includes acts intended to (1) undermine public confidence in election processes or institutions, or (2) influence or alter the result of an election.
