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

House Resolution 1442 supports designating July 20, 2026, as "National Moon Landing Day." It recognizes the historic 1969 Apollo 11 mission and the ongoing Artemis missions to return humans to the Moon. The resolution encourages Americans to celebrate astronauts, honor those who died in exploration, and recognize the workers who build space technology. It also aims to inspire youth to pursue STEM careers and educate others on the value of space exploration.
