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.

What it does: CRS summary · Introduced in House · Apr 30, 2021

This bill exempts certain contracts from periodic inflation adjustments to the acquisition-related dollar threshold.

Current law establishes dollar thresholds related to acquisition spending by federal agencies and it requires those thresholds to be adjusted every five years for inflation. The bill exempts certain contracts (e.g., contracts of more than $100,000 for the construction, alteration, or repair of any public building or public work of the federal government) from this adjustment.
