Expressing the profound sorrow of the House of Representatives on the death of the Honorable Donald E. Young.

This resolution (HRES 1004) is a formal House of Representatives statement expressing sorrow over the death of former Alaska Representative Donald E. Young, who served as the "Dean of the House." It does not create new laws or policies; instead, it directs the House to formally acknowledge his passing and adjourn the session as a mark of respect. The resolution specifically states the House "has heard with profound sorrow" of his death and instructs the Clerk to notify the Senate and Young's family. It directly affects the House's procedural actions and serves as a ceremonial tribute to a deceased member.
