Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 4593) to amend the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to revise the definition of showerhead; providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 5184) to prohibit the Secretary of Energy from enforcing energy efficiency standards applicable to manufactured housing, and for other purposes; and providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 6938) making consolidated appropriations for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes.

H.Res. 977 is a procedural resolution that establishes the rules for House consideration of three separate bills. The resolution would allow the House to debate and vote on H.R. 4593, which would amend the definition of showerhead under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act; H.R. 5184, which would prohibit the Secretary of Energy from enforcing energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing; and H.R. 6938, which would provide consolidated appropriations for the federal government for fiscal year 2026.

As a non-binding resolution, H.Res. 977 itself does not enact policy but rather determines how the House will proceed with considering these three substantive bills. The resolution has already passed the House and now moves to the Senate for consideration. If approved by the Senate, the resolution would clear the way for the House to formally debate and vote on the three underlying bills.

For everyday citizens, the practical significance depends on whether the three bills ultimately pass. If enacted, the showerhead redefinition could affect water flow standards in bathrooms, the manufactured housing provision could reduce energy efficiency requirements for mobile homes, and the appropriations bill would fund federal operations and programs for the coming fiscal year. However, these outcomes depend on the Senate passing both this resolution and the underlying bills themselves.
