BUDS Resolution
This resolution (HRES 501) amends House rules to allow two members - one from the majority party and one from the minority party - to jointly sponsor public bills or resolutions. It directly affects House members by changing the sponsorship process for legislative proposals. The key provision adds a new paragraph to Rule XII, permitting this cross-party sponsorship structure while updating related procedures for naming cosponsors and submitting constitutional statements. The change aims to facilitate bipartisan collaboration on legislative proposals within the House rules framework.
