From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the
United States
, a
simple resolution
is a legislative measure passed by only either the
Senate
or the
House of Representatives
. As they have been passed by only one house, simple resolutions are not presented to the President, and do not have the force of law. The resolution is used for matters such as establishing the rules under which each body will operate, it to act or speak on behalf of only one chamber of Congress.
