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, introduced by Mr. Green of Texas, aims to affirm the State of Palestine's right to exist. It notes that the Palestinian people are inhabitants of the land of Palestine.

Finally, the resolution seeks to affirm Palestine's future as a nation State and recognize a two-state solution.
