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.

Union Accountability Act

This bill nullifies the executive order titled Protecting the Federal Workforce, which was issued on January 22, 2021.

The order revoked previous executive orders concerning federal-employee collective bargaining and classifications. Specifically, it revoked orders that

limited the use of unrestricted grants for union activity,
specified objectives for agencies to negotiate collective-bargaining agreements and established the Interagency Labor Relations Working Group,
established principles for the removal and discipline of federal employees and other personnel issues, and
placed certain executive agency positions under a new schedule in the excepted service instead of the competitive service.

The order also instructs agencies to engage in collective bargaining negotiations over certain non-mandatory subjects, and requires the Office of Personnel Management to provide the President with recommendations to promote a minimum wage of $15 an hour for federal employees.
