Last activity — Submitted in the Senate, considered, and agreed to without amendment and with a preamble by Unanimous Consent. (consideration: CR S2057; text: CR S2056)

Adopted

The chamber formally agreed to it, and for a resolution that is the finish line: what it says is now officially the chamber's position, rule or tribute.

Nothing more is needed. A resolution is how a chamber speaks for itself or sets its own rules, so adopting it is what puts it into effect. It is not a law, so there is nothing for the President to sign.

Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced
  2. Officially Recorded
  3. Adopted by the Senate unanimous consent

A Senate resolution is the Senate speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the Senate agrees to it, it is officially the Senate's word; it is not a law, so the House and the President have no part in it.

The Senate by unanimous consent (no one objected, so there was no vote): no senator's position on it was recorded.

What this bill would do

This resolution congratulates the University of South Carolina Aiken women's polo team for their success. The team won the 2026 United States Polo Association Division I Women's National Intercollegiate Championship by defeating Texas A&M University. This victory represents the first national title and the first undefeated season in the program's history. The resolution acknowledges the contributions of the players, coaches, and staff. Finally, it requests that the Secretary of the Senate transmit an enrolled copy of the resolution to specific team members.
