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 provides funding for the expenses of the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure in the One Hundred Nineteenth Congress.

Section 3 outlines the voucher process for making payments authorized by the committee. Finally, Section 4 requires that the funds be spent in accordance with regulations set by the Committee on House Administration.
