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 support for the President's actions to safeguard national security and eliminate threats from foreign terrorist organizations. It highlights Executive Order 14157, which designated certain cartels and organizations as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists. The text notes that Tren de Aragua was specifically named as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. It also mentions an agreement with President Bukele to imprison members of Tren de Aragua. Furthermore, it references the President invoking the Alien Enemies Act on March 15, 2025, following the infiltration of the United States. The resolution concludes by supporting the removal of foreign terrorists and the President's authority to detain or deport non-citizens from these organizations.
