A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.
What this bill would do
This resolution supports the goals and ideals of "Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism Awareness Month".

The resolution notes that these conditions affect up to 900,000 people and cause between 60,000 to 100,000 deaths in the United States annually. It aims to designate March as the awareness month for these conditions.
