A concurrent resolution is how the House and the Senate settle something they do together, such as a budget plan or a joint session. It is adopted once both chambers agree to it, and that puts it into effect; it is not a law, so it does not go to the President.

What this bill would do

This concurrent resolution authorizes the use of the Capitol rotunda for a lying in state ceremony. The individuals honored are Air Force Major John A. Klinner, Captain Ariana G. Savino, Captain Seth R. Koval, Captain Curtis J. Angst, Technical Sergeant Ashley B. Pruitt, and Technical Sergeant Tyler H. Simmons. These service members served in support of Operation Epic Fury. The date for this event will be decided by the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives. The Architect of the Capitol is directed to take all necessary steps to accomplish this purpose.
