S. 151 · 118th Congress
Countering Corporate Corruption in China Act of 2023
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 expands the activity prohibited under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) applicable to issuers of securities, domestic concerns, and others. (The FCPA generally prohibits bribes to foreign officials.)
