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.

Ending Subsidies for Pro-Terrorist Activity on Campus Act
This bill requires certain actions related to preventing terrorism and antisemitism on campus.
Specifically, the bill requires each institution of higher education (IHE) that participates in federal student aid programs to include in its annual security report (1) a statement of current campus policies regarding antisemitism; and (2) a statement of current campus policies regarding procedures to prevent and respond to speech, fighting words, or true threats by students, employees, or other individuals related to foreign terrorist organizations.
Additionally, each IHE that receives federal funds must (1) carry out procedures to identify applicants for faculty and staff positions or applicants for student enrollment who have engaged in certain terrorist-related activity; and (2) ensure that federal funds are not used for any activity that urges support for, endorses, espouses, encourages, organizes for, or promotes a foreign terrorist organization or its terrorist activities.
The bill prohibits a student that has been convicted of a criminal offense involving terrorist activity from receiving federal student aid.
The bill requires IHEs that participate in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program to report antisemitic and terrorist-related activity committed by foreign students to the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of State.
Each IHE receiving federal financial assistance must report information to the Department of Education (ED) on its efforts to prevent and respond to discrimination that is based on an individual's Jewish lineage or ethnic characteristics. ED must annually submit a report to Congress containing this information.
