CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

John Thune (R-SD)

A concurrent resolution authorizing the use of the rotunda of the Capitol for a ceremony to honor the late Senator Lindsey O. Graham.

S.Con.Res. 37 · Senate resolution Congress

A Republican resolution with no cosponsors

Last activity — Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection.

Passed both chambers, not yet sent to the President

Both the House and the Senate have passed it, though not necessarily the same text.

If the two chambers passed identical wording, the final copy is being prepared for the President. If they did not, one chamber must accept the other's version or the two negotiate a single one — nothing goes to the President until the text is identical.

Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced
  2. Agreed to by the Senate unanimous consent
  3. Agreed to by the House unanimous consent

A concurrent resolution is how the Senate and the House settle something they do together, such as a budget plan or a joint session. It is adopted once both chambers agree to it, and that puts it into effect; it is not a law, so it does not go to the President.

No one's position on it was recorded: the Senate by unanimous consent (no one objected, so there was no vote), and the House by unanimous consent (no one objected, so there was no vote).

What this bill would do

This concurrent resolution authorizes the use of the Capitol rotunda on July 28, 2026. The purpose of this use is to hold a tribute to honor the late Senator Lindsey O. Graham. Physical preparations for this event must follow the conditions prescribed by the Architect of the Capitol.
