H.R. 3257 · 117th Congress
US Navy SEAL SCPO Tyrone Snowden Woods Ceremony Invitee 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.
4 cosponsors · 3 D, 1 R
4 signed on when it was introduced; the rest joined later. Cosponsors who withdrew aren't shown.
This bill directs the Department of State to establish policies allowing a member of a diplomatic mission to designate next-of-kin who will be invited to and entitled to attend the member's memorial service in the event of the member's death while in service of the United States.
