H.R. 284 · 117th Congress

Require USCP to Utilize Body-Worn Cameras 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 117th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

This bill requires each uniformed officer of the U.S. Capitol Police whose job duties include interacting with the general public to use a body-worn camera and ensure it is activated while on duty. This requirement does not apply to an officer serving on a personal protection detail.
