H.R. 5134 · 117th Congress

Showing American Values by Evacuating (SAVE) Afghan Partners Act of 2021

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 increases the number of special immigrant visas available to qualified Afghan nationals who worked for the U.S. government or the NATO missions in Afghanistan.

Specifically, this bill makes available an additional 10,000 visas for principal aliens under this special visa program, to be available until all such visas have been issued.
