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

H. Res. 1374 expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that parents need clear, accurate, and useful information regarding video programming content to make informed decisions for their children. The resolution calls on the Federal Communications Commission to encourage a modernized ratings framework covering broadcast, cable, streaming, and on-demand services. It urges for neutral and objective content descriptions and greater transparency in how ratings are assigned. Additionally, it suggests that the oversight body for these ratings include parents, child advocates, and public interest stakeholders. Finally, it encourages public awareness of parental guidance tools and acknowledges that further legislative action may be needed.
