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 the House of Representatives' profound sorrow regarding the death of the Honorable Raul M. Grijalva, a Representative from Arizona. It directs the Clerk to communicate these resolutions to the Senate. Additionally, the Clerk is instructed to transmit a copy of the resolution to the family of the deceased. Finally, the House will adjourn today as a mark of respect for his memory.
