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. 749 is a resolution to recognize September 22, 2025, to September 28, 2025, as "Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions Week." It honors the 18th anniversary of these institutions and their role in providing quality education to Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander students. The resolution encourages eligible schools to seek funding and create programs for these communities. It also calls on the public to observe the week with ceremonies and activities.
