H.R. 3049 · 117th Congress

No Communist Countries Participating in Lobbying 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.

6 cosponsors · 6 R

5 signed on when it was introduced; the rest joined later. Cosponsors who withdrew aren't shown.

This bill prohibits former Members of Congress from lobbying the federal government on behalf of communist countries (or entities that are owned or controlled by such countries) and establishes specific monetary penalties for violations.
