H.R. 814 · 118th Congress
Protect Social Security and Medicare 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.

Protect Social Security and Medicare Act
This bill restricts the consideration of legislation if it contains any provision that reduces retirement, health, or other benefits administered by the Social Security Administration or the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Such legislation may not be considered in the House or the Senate unless two-thirds of the Members agree to consider it. However, the restriction does not apply to the consideration of any provision that reduces payments to Medicare Advantage plans if the provision also increases the amount of payments made for other purposes under Medicare. For this exception to apply, the amount of the increase must be equal to or greater than the amount of the reduction.
