Providing for consideration of the (H.R. 5665) to establish in the Department of State the Office to Monitor and Combat Islamophobia, and for other purposes.
HRES 849 is a procedural resolution enabling the House to consider H.R. 5665, which proposes creating a State Department office to monitor Islamophobia. It waives procedural objections to the bill’s consideration, sets one hour of debate (equally divided between committee leaders), and modifies the amendment process for the bill. This resolution itself does not establish the office or change policy - it only streamlines the legislative process for the underlying bill.
