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 recognizes September 17, 2026, as National Teach Ag Day. It highlights how agricultural education and the National FFA Organization help students grow personally and prepare for future careers. The text points out that there are more than 11,000 agricultural educators across the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. It also mentions the work of the National Association of Agricultural Educators in supporting these teachers. Ultimately, the House of Representatives expresses support for this designated day and acknowledges the vital role of agricultural education.
