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
The House of Representatives passed a resolution acknowledging the death of former Vice President Richard B. Cheney. The resolution expresses profound sorrow over his passing. It directs the Clerk to inform the Senate and send a copy to the family. Additionally, the House will adjourn today as a sign of respect.
