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 addresses the process for considering a specific bill, H.R. 1. It allows the House to take the bill from the Speaker's table. The resolution is intended to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14. It further allows the House to consider a motion to concur with the Senate amendment. This motion is set to be debated for one hour.
