HRES 462 United States House · 119th Congress

Providing for consideration of the joint resolution (H.J. Res. 91) relating to a national emergency by the President on April 2, 2025.

HRES 462 is a procedural resolution that sets rules for the House to vote on H.J. Res. 91, which challenges President Biden's April 2, 2025, declaration of a national emergency. It removes procedural barriers to allow immediate debate and voting on H.J. Res. 91, with one hour of debate equally split between the committee chair and ranking minority member. The resolution also waives objections to the content of H.J. Res. 91 and requires the House to transmit its passage to the Senate within a week. This procedural step directly affects House members by enabling them to vote on the resolution that would end the declared national emergency.
