H.R. 5910 · 117th Congress
Holding SPACs Accountable Act of 2021
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.
No cosponsors.
This bill revises the exclusion from safe harbor protections from liability applicable to forward-looking statements (i.e., statements that predict, project, or use future events as expectations or possibilities) made in connection with certain investments.
