How to read this
Separate bills. A connected history.
Each introduction has its own congressional record. A matching bill number does not establish a relationship, and related proposals may have different policy details.
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.
