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

The House of Representatives has expressed profound sorrow regarding the death of the Honorable David Scott, a Representative from the State of Georgia. This resolution directs the Clerk to communicate these resolutions to the Senate. Additionally, the Clerk is instructed to transmit a copy of the resolution to the family of the deceased. Finally, the House will adjourn today as a further mark of respect to the memory of the deceased.
