How to read this

One bill. Both chambers.

These are stages within H.R.5371, not separate introductions across Congresses. Related appropriations and extension measures have their own records and may contribute only part of the package.

Committee votes, procedural votes, and final-passage votes answer different questions. House passage alone does not make a bill law. Vote links show the individual member positions in the official record.

An ended Congress or a missing roll-call link does not establish that a bill was voted down—or that no vote occurred. Dates and outcomes here reflect the reviewed sources.
