H.R. 1243 · 118th Congress
Federal Agent Responsibility 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 118th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Federal Agent Responsibility Act
This bill generally prohibits any federal law enforcement officer or individual employed by a federal law enforcement agency from providing financial or material aid in support of executing a nonfederal warrant requested by a state or local law enforcement agency. Nonfederal warrant refers to a warrant authorizing a search by a state or local law enforcement agency or office executing an ex parte judicial order to confiscate a firearm.
The bill permits a federal law enforcement officer to forcibly enter a location subject to a warrant, in less than 30 seconds, if there is a threat or risk of serious, imminent life-threatening injury and the officer submits a formal written report to the judicial official responsible for authorizing the warrant.
