Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the House should recognize Robert Aitken's Bible as a historical document of the United States Congress.
Summary
House Resolution 336 proposes that the House of Representatives officially recognize the "Aitken Bible" as a significant historical document of the United States Congress. Printed by Robert Aitken in 1782, this version was the first English-language Bible published in North America and received a formal endorsement from the Continental Congress during the American Revolution.
If passed, this resolution would serve as a symbolic gesture of historical recognition and would not create new laws, mandate federal spending, or impact the daily lives of citizens. Its primary purpose is to acknowledge the document’s role in early American history and its unique connection to the nation's founding legislative body.
