Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 5827) to advance bipartisan, common sense solutions.

H.Res. 989 is a procedural resolution that would establish the terms for House consideration of H.R. 5827. This type of resolution sets the rules and timeline for debating and voting on the underlying bill. As a non-binding resolution, it does not have the force of law itself and does not require presidential signature. If adopted, it would simply enable the House to proceed with formal consideration of H.R. 5827, which is described as advancing bipartisan, common sense solutions. The resolution is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, having been introduced in January 2026 and referred to committee. The actual impact on citizens would depend entirely on whether H.R. 5827 passes and what specific provisions it contains.
