H.R. 2659 · 118th Congress
Pardon Disclosure 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.
No cosponsors.
This bill retroactively requires Members of Congress who request presidential pardons for themselves or on behalf of other individuals, and individuals who receive such requests, to disclose the requests to the Select Committee on Ethics of the Senate or the Committee on Ethics of the House of Representatives, as applicable.
