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

H. Res. 365 is a resolution to express the sense of the House of Representatives that Robert Aitken's Bible should be recognized as a historical document of the United States Congress. The bill notes that it was the first English-language Bible printed in North America. It references a 1781 petition by Robert Aitken and a 1782 resolution by the Committee on Congress approving the work.
