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. 1434 is a resolution expressing support for the Trump Administration's efforts to get a rehearing of the Supreme Court decision in Trump v. Barbara. The Supreme Court previously ruled that children born in the U.S. to parents who are unlawfully or temporarily present are citizens at birth, which invalidated Executive Order 14160. The resolution cites concerns that "birth tourism" packages are being marketed for commercial gain to circumvent immigration laws. It urges the Solicitor General to file for a rehearing and asks the House Committee on the Judiciary to monitor the situation. The goal is to protect the integrity of citizenship and immigration laws.
