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 calls for the appointment of a committee consisting of two Members.

The Speaker is tasked with appointing this committee.

The committee's purpose is to notify the President of the United States that a quorum of the House has assembled.

It also informs the President that the House is ready to receive communications.
