Providing amounts for the expenses of the Committee on Foreign Affairs in the One Hundred Nineteenth Congress.

H.Res. 138 is a non-binding resolution that would provide budgetary amounts for the expenses of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs during the 119th Congress. As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. Instead, it serves as an internal congressional authorization for the committee's operational budget.

If enacted, this resolution would establish the funding parameters that the Foreign Affairs Committee would use to conduct its work, including staff salaries, office operations, and other administrative costs. The resolution is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, having been referred to committee following its introduction in February 2025. Citizens would not directly experience impacts from this resolution, as it is primarily an internal congressional budgeting matter that determines how much money the committee has available to operate.
