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 bill recognizes the 110th anniversary of the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Library and Museums, which is the nation's first presidential library.

The text highlights the history of the library, its collection of historical artifacts, and its role as a model for federal presidential libraries. It also connects these milestones to the 250th anniversary of American independence. Finally, the resolution encourages Americans to reflect on the nation's history and celebrate civic responsibility.
