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

H. Res. 1525 recognizes the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. It honors the first responders and individuals who showed selfless dedication in New York, DC, and Pennsylvania. The resolution calls on members of Congress and the American people to observe September 11, 2026, as a "National Day of Service and Remembrance." It encourages people to participate in service, reflection, and charitable activities. Finally, it urges citizens to maintain a spirit of unity and compassion throughout the year.
