HCONRES 53 United States House · 118th Congress

Calling on the President to sign H.R. 2 of the 118th Congress, the Secure the Border Act of 2023.

HCONRES 53 is a procedural resolution calling on the President to sign H.R. 2 (the Secure the Border Act of 2023). It states that Congress believes the southern border situation constitutes a "deadly and humanitarian crisis" caused by the Biden administration's border policies, and urges the President to sign the border security bill after it passes the Senate. This resolution does not create new law but expresses congressional opinion and seeks to influence the President's action on the separate bill (H.R. 2). It directly affects the executive branch's decision on signing the legislation, not specific individuals or communities.
