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. 864 is a resolution to honor the service and sacrifice of United States veterans on Veterans Day, 2025.

The resolution acknowledges the millions of Americans who have served in the military during war and peacetime. It also notes the sacrifices made by veterans' families and the role of veterans service organizations. Ultimately, the House of Representatives honors veterans and encourages the American people to observe the day.
