Message on Senate action sent to the House.
This resolution is a formal statement by both chambers of Congress recognizing AHEPA's 85th anniversary, praising its history and charitable work, and asking the President to issue a proclamation. It does not create new law or change any legal rights. It is a nonbinding commemoration that records Congress's view and honors the organization.
Concurrent resolutions must be adopted by both the House and the Senate but are not presented to the President and do not have the force of law. They are commonly used for commemorations and to express the consensus of both chambers.
