Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution directs the House Clerk to ask the Senate to send back a previously passed bill about federal courthouse construction. The bill in question, H.R. 3426, would place new restrictions on when the federal government can build new courthouses by amending existing federal property laws. This procedural move suggests the House wants to make changes to the courthouse legislation before it becomes law, which is a common practice when lawmakers want to revise bills after they've been sent to the other chamber. The resolution affects the legislative process for federal courthouse construction rules but does not involve any direct funding or specific timelines beyond the immediate request to return the bill.
