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 commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). The plan serves as a bipartisan blueprint to restore the natural water flow from Lake Okeechobee to Florida Bay. It was originally authorized by Congress through the Water Resources Development Act of 2000. The resolution highlights the long-term commitment from various federal and state administrations to this ecosystem restoration effort. It also recognizes the economic and environmental importance of the Everglades to Florida and the nation. Finally, it calls for continued investments to meet the goals of the plan.
