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.

Presidential Accountability for Yearly Submission of The United States' Budget Act or the PAYSTUB Act

This bill restricts the use of federal funds for the salaries or expenses of political employees if the President's budget is not submitted to Congress by the first Monday in February as required by law.

Specifically, if the President's budget is not submitted to Congress on or before the first Monday in February of a year, federal funds may not be used for the salary or expenses of any political employee during the period beginning on the first Tuesday of February of that year and ending on the date the budget is submitted.

On the earliest possible date after the President's budget is submitted, political employees whose salaries or expenses were not paid during a period in which the President's budget had not yet been submitted must be paid for that period.
