H.R. 5503 · 118th Congress
Tribal Conservation Priorities Inclusion 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 includes Indian tribes as entities that can identify priority resource concerns under certain federal conservation programs.

Tribal Conservation Priorities Inclusion Act
This bill includes Indian tribes as entities that can identify priority resource concerns under certain federal conservation programs.
Currently, a priority resource concern is defined as a natural resource concern or problem, as determined by the Department of Agriculture, that is identified at the national, state, or local level as a priority for a particular area of a state. This bill expands the definition to include identification at the tribal level as a priority for a particular area on tribal land.
