GROW 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.

Get Rewarding Outdoor Work for our Veterans Act or the GROW Act
This bill addresses certain federal activities related to veterans who are transitioning from service to civilian life. First, the bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to annually report to Congress on the Warrior Training Advancement Course (WARTAC) of the Veterans Benefits Administration. The report must include specified elements, including information regarding how many members of the Armed Forces who are participating in the Transition Assistance Program have participated in WARTAC.
The bill also requires the Veterans' Employment and Training Services within the Department of Labor to establish guidelines containing best practices for departments and agencies that implement programs to employ veterans who are transitioning from service.
Additionally, the Department of the Interior must implement a two-year pilot program under which veterans are employed by the federal government in positions that relate to the conservation and resource management activities of Interior.
