In committee

Introduced and handed to a committee in the chamber it started in.

The committee holds it, and most bills are never heard from again. A hearing or a committee vote would be news; silence is the usual outcome, and it kills the bill without anyone voting against it.

Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced
  2. In Committee

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 is a formal denunciation of corruption in all its forms. It expresses concern regarding the decline of public trust in the Federal Government. The text highlights issues such as unlimited political spending, the influence of wealthy donors, and the "revolving door" between public and private sectors. It also addresses the use of public office for personal enrichment through methods like insider trading and foreign deals. Finally, the resolution opposes policies that favor special interests over the American people.
