H.R. 8075 · 117th Congress

Internet Freedom Rapid Response Act of 2022

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 authorizes the U.S. Agency for Global Media's Open Technology Fund to make grants to eligible entities to support internet freedom technologies to counter acute escalations in censorship in closed countries (generally countries in which democratic participation, free expression, freedom of movement, or access to information is suppressed).
