Safe Drinking Water in Playgrounds and Parks 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 an existing grant program that provides assistance to local education agencies for replacing school drinking water fountains that were manufactured prior to 1988 to include such drinking water fountains located in playgrounds and parks owned or administered by schools.
