S. 2844 · 116th Congress

Accountability for Utility Executives Act

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

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 prohibits a publicly traded utility company undergoing bankruptcy proceedings from paying bonuses or any golden parachute compensation to company executives. The bill defines golden parachute compensation as compensation based on or related to the acquisition, merger, consolidation, sale, or other disposition of the assets of the company.
