H.R. 7601 · 117th Congress
Inspector General Notification 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.
No cosponsors.
This bill requires the Department of Justice (DOJ) to notify the DOJ Office of the Inspector General in any case in which the metadata or contents of any communication of a covered party (i.e., any member of the legislative branch or any member or employee of the judicial branch) is subject to a subpoena, court order, or warrant.
