H.R. 6186 · 118th Congress
TEMP 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.

Temperature Endorsement for Multi-Peril Policies Act or the TEMP Act
This bill directs the federal crop insurance program to provide for research and development regarding a temperature-based index policy to insure crops on a nationally-available basis against losses due to a frost or cold weather event.
The research and development must (1) evaluate the effectiveness of risk management tools with respect to low frequency and catastrophic loss weather events, and (2) result in a policy that provides protection for production loss or revenue loss.
(The term policy means an insurance policy, plan of insurance, provision of a policy or plan of insurance, and related materials.)
