Tabled
The chamber set it aside for good — "tabled" it — which ends a measure without a vote on the measure itself. Where the chamber voted to table it, a yes was a vote against it.
Nothing. A tabled measure is not taken up again; if the idea comes back, it comes back as a new bill or resolution.
Its path through Congress
- Introduced
- Tabled
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 seeks to censure Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. It calls for her to present herself in the well of the House of Representatives for a public reading of the censure by the Speaker. Additionally, the resolution mandates her removal from the Committee on Education and Workforce and the Committee on the Budget. The action is prompted by Representative Omar's comments following the assassination of Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025. The resolution argues her actions regarding the deceased do not reflect creditably on the House.
