Full title
To amend title 1, United States Code, to direct the Archivist of the United States to authenticate, count, and publish applications of States calling for a Convention for proposing amendments to the Constitution of the United States, to publish a certification when two-thirds of the States submit applications calling for such a Convention, and to notify Congress of the requirement under Article V of the Constitution to call such a Convention when such a certification is published, and for other purposes.
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.
