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

The named members are assigned to the Committee on Agriculture, the Committee on Foreign Affairs, the Committee on Natural Resources, and the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology.
