Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution creates a formal committee of two House members to inform the President that the House of Representatives has assembled with enough members present to conduct business. The Speaker of the House will choose these two members to deliver the official notification to the President that the House is ready to receive any communications he wishes to share. This is a standard procedural resolution that occurs at the beginning of each new Congress to establish formal communication between the legislative and executive branches. The resolution affects only the two members selected for this ceremonial duty and requires no funding or specific timeline beyond the immediate formation of the committee.
