Amending the Rules of the House of Representatives to establish a Permanent Select Committee on Aging.

H.Res. 1013 proposes to amend the Rules of the House of Representatives to create a Permanent Select Committee on Aging. This committee would be a standing body dedicated to addressing policy matters related to aging and senior citizens. Currently under committee consideration, this resolution has not yet been voted on by the full House.

It is important to note that this is a non-binding resolution, meaning it does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. If passed, it would establish the organizational structure and authority for the committee within the House, but would not directly create new laws or programs. The practical impact would be to give the House a dedicated committee structure to focus legislative attention and oversight on aging-related issues such as Social Security, Medicare, long-term care, and other senior-focused policies.
