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 proposes the removal of certain Members from their standing committee assignments. The action is prompted by conduct exhibited on the House floor on March 6, 2025. Specifically, the resolution targets individuals who may have ignored a directive from the Speaker to leave the Well of the House. The Sergeant at Arms is tasked with identifying these Members within one week of the resolution's passage. Once the list is provided to the Speaker, those individuals must be removed from their current committees for the rest of the 119th Congress.
