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 seeks to censure Representative Jasmine Crockett of Texas. The measure follows remarks made by Representative Crockett at a Human Rights Campaign event on March 22, 2025, where she referred to the Governor of Texas as "Governor Hot Wheels" and a "hot ass mess." The resolution also cites previous comments made by Representative Crockett on May 16, 2024, regarding the appearance of another Member of Congress. If passed, the resolution requires Representative Crockett to present herself in the well of the House of Representatives. The Speaker would then publicly read the resolution to issue the censure.
