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 resolution expresses profound sorrow over the death of the Honorable Sylvester Turner, a Representative from the State of Texas. It directs the Clerk of the House to communicate these resolutions to the Senate. It also requires the Clerk to transmit a copy of the resolution to the family of the deceased. Finally, it states that when the House adjourns today, it will do so as a further mark of respect to the memory of the deceased.
