Stop Wrongs to Our Kids’ Educational Meals (W.O.K.E.) Act of 2022
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.

Stop Wrongs to Our Kids' Educational Meals (W.O.K.E.) Act of 2022
This bill repeals Executive Order 13988, titled Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation, that directs federal agencies to review all policies that implement non-discrimination protections on the basis of sex and extend such protections to the categories of gender identity and sexual orientation.
The bill also prohibits the Department of Agriculture from requiring state or local agencies, program operators, or sponsors that participate in the school meal programs to (1) investigate allegations of discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation, or (2) update non-discrimination policies and signage to include prohibitions against discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation.
