House Rules for Veterans Benefits and New Museum
The House passed this resolution on May 19, 2026, to set the rules for debating three other bills. It now moves to the Senate for consideration, but it is uncertain if the Senate will take any action. Most bills that pass the House do not move forward in the Senate.
This is a routine procedural step that the majority party uses to manage the House floor. These resolutions almost always pass because they are necessary to move the party's agenda forward.
