H.R. 1652 · 118th Congress
Access to White House Visitor Logs 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.

Access to White House Visitor Logs Act
This bill directs the President to establish and update, every 90 days, a publicly available database that contains records of
- the name of each visitor at the White House, the residence of the Vice President, or any other location at which the President or Vice President regularly conducts official business;
- the name of each individual with whom the visitor met; and
- the purpose of the visit.
The President shall not include in the database any such record (1) the posting of which would implicate personal privacy or law enforcement concerns or threaten national security, or (2) relating to a purely personal guest.
For a particularly sensitive meeting, the President shall (1) include in the database the number of visitors, and (2) post the applicable records in the database when their release is no longer sensitive.
