H.R. 996 · 117th Congress
Congress Commission Act
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.
4 cosponsors · 4 D
4 signed on when it was introduced; the rest joined later. Cosponsors who withdrew aren't shown.
This bill establishes the Congressional Commission to Strengthen Representative Democracy, which must examine and make recommendations relating to changing the membership size of the House of Representatives and the method of electing Representatives.
