H.R. 457 · 119th Congress
Passport Notification Act of 2025
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.
Not yet voted on. This bill is still a proposal: it hasn't reached a floor vote, and its text can change in committee or on the floor before any vote.
No cosponsors.
This bill requires the Bureau of Consular Affairs to notify U.S. citizens at least 180 days prior to the date on which their passport is scheduled to expire. The notification must include information on the process for renewal and identify locations where renewal applications may be submitted. The notification may be in electronic or paper form.
