Maddy summaryThis House resolution formally supports the recognition of September 27, 2026, through October 3, 2026, as "Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions Week."

It highlights that these institutions enroll a significant majority of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander undergraduate students, many of whom are from low-income or first-generation college families. The resolution encourages these schools to continue securing resources and calls on the public to observe the week with events that demonstrate support for their educational mission.

Maddy summaryThis concurrent resolution directs the President to withdraw United States Armed Forces from any hostilities against Iran. It specifically invokes the War Powers Resolution, mandating this removal unless Congress formally declares war or provides specific authorization for military force against Iran. The bill clarifies that it does not prevent the U.S. from acting in self-defense, maintaining a defensive troop presence in the region, or continuing intelligence activities related to threats from Iran.
