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.
Passed the Senate without a recorded vote, then expired. It passed by voice vote or unanimous consent, which don't record how each member voted, but didn't become law before the 116th Congress ended.

What it does: CRS summary · Passed Senate · Nov 13, 2019
This bill revises conflict-of-interest limitations applicable to personnel at the Government Publishing Office (GPO).
Current law prohibits GPO personnel from having any printing-related interest.
This bill creates an exemption for certain interests—interests in diversified mutual funds, diversified unit investment trusts, employee benefit plans, and retirement plans—that have underlying holdings in printing-related interests.
Additionally, the prohibition applies only to the GPO director—not to other GPO personnel.
