H.R. 8093 · 116th Congress
Big Bend National Park Boundary Adjustment 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 authorizes the Department of the Interior to acquire, by donation, purchase from willing sellers, or exchange, approximately 6,100 acres of lands or interests in land generally identified as the Proposed Park Addition on the map titled Big Bend National Park, Proposed Boundary Adjustment and dated July 2020.
