H.R. 8618 · 116th Congress
Local Government Taxpayer Fairness 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.
This bill allows local governments to treat the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) of the Department of the Interior as a private landowner for purposes of local property taxation and to treat lands acquired by the USFWS that are within the jurisdiction of a local government as privately-owned lands.
