H.R. 254 · 117th Congress
Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder Consortium 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 117th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
This bill requires the National Institutes of Health to establish a national consortium to coordinate and support research on neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, including by awarding grants. This is a neurological disease that can cause blindness, paralysis, and premature death.
