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.

Restoring Rights of Medical Residents Act
This bill repeals the antitrust exemption for graduate medical resident matching programs.
Currently, the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP), a private, nonprofit organization, generally matches graduate medical students with residency positions. In 2002, a lawsuit alleged that the NRMP violated federal antitrust laws. The Pension Funding Equity Act of 2004 established the antitrust exemption for such programs and the lawsuit was subsequently dismissed.
