In Committee

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. 1432 is a resolution that asks the President and the Secretary of Health and Human Services to provide the House of Representatives with specific documents. These documents must relate to the freeze of payments for the Child Care and Development Fund, Social Services Block Grant, and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. The request focuses on California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, and New York. The resolution requires these materials to be delivered within 14 days of the resolution's adoption.
