Referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce.
This resolution is a simple House resolution that offers the House's congratulations and praise for the North Dakota State University Bison football team's 2024 championship. It was introduced and considered only in the House and, if adopted, would record the House's sentiments but would not create any legal rights or change federal law. Simple resolutions are typically used to make official statements, honor people or events, or express the chamber's views.
This House resolution congratulates North Dakota State University (NDSU) Bison football for winning the 2024 NCAA Division I FCS title, commends coaches, players, university leadership, and recognizes students, alumni, and fans.
It highlights the program's historical success, the first-year head coach's achievement, and the pride brought to North Dakota.
Nonbinding House resolution unlikely to 'become law'; very likely adopted by House but not legislation enacted into law.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a concise and well-constructed commemorative House resolution that clearly states its purpose and supplies supporting factual context. It contains the expected elements for a symbolic resolution and appropriately omits operational, fiscal, or statutory provisions.
