A resolution notifying the President of the United States of the election of a President pro tempore.
Summary
This is a non-binding resolution that would formally notify the President of the United States that Charles E. Grassley, a Senator from Iowa, has been elected President of the Senate pro tempore. The President pro tempore is the second-highest-ranking position in the Senate, typically held by the most senior member of the majority party. This resolution serves as an official notification of that election.
As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. It is a procedural notification rather than legislation that would change policy or affect citizens' rights or benefits. The resolution was introduced on January 3, 2025, and remains in the early stage of the legislative process. Most introduced bills do not advance further, and this resolution would simply formalize the Senate's notification to the President of the leadership election.
