H.R. 5295 · 116th Congress
National Institute for Research on Safety and Quality 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 establishes the National Institute for Research on Safety and Quality within the National Institutes of Health and transfers the authorities, duties, obligations, and related legal and administrative functions of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality to that institute.
