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 congratulates the University of Vermont men's soccer team, known as the Catamounts, for winning the 2024 NCAA Division I men's soccer national championship.

The text highlights notable moments, including a goal by Marcell Papp and the game-winning overtime goal by Maximilian Kissel. It also praises the coaching and support staff for their grit and determination throughout the season.
