Adopted

The chamber formally agreed to it, and for a resolution that is the finish line: what it says is now officially the chamber's position, rule or tribute.

Nothing more is needed. A resolution is how a chamber speaks for itself or sets its own rules, so adopting it is what puts it into effect. It is not a law, so there is nothing for the President to sign.

Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced
  2. Adopted by the House 225–187

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 addresses the necessity of fully funding the Department of Homeland Security. It notes that various agencies within the Department face operational risks during lapses in appropriations. Specifically, it highlights issues such as missed paychecks for Coast Guard personnel and increased passenger delays at the TSA. The text also points to recent security incidents and cyberattacks by adversaries as evidence of a heightened threat environment. Ultimately, the resolution recognizes the importance of providing the Department with all necessary resources to protect the American people.
