A Senate resolution is the Senate speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the Senate agrees to it, it is officially the Senate's word; it is not a law, so the House and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution addresses the principle of territorial integrity among nations. It highlights that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have invaded and are occupying the sovereign territory of Ukraine. The text includes a quote from President Reagan regarding the importance of standing by democratic allies against aggression. Ultimately, the Senate intends to reaffirm a fundamental principle regarding international conduct. This principle states that no state should use or threaten force against the political or territorial integrity of another state.
