A simple resolution (H.Res. or S.Res.) deals only with the chamber voting — its internal business, or a stated position such as a censure. A concurrent resolution (H.Con.Res. or S.Con.Res.) needs both chambers. Neither goes to the president or has the force of law.Senate glossary: simple resolution ↗Senate glossary: concurrent resolution ↗
