The congress member's bill proposing to officially condemn a foreign country's actions in a symbolic gesture is an example of:

A. Simple resolution

  • A simple resolution is a type of legislation that addresses matters concerning the rules, operation, or opinions of a single chamber of Congress (House of Representatives or Senate). It does not require the President's signature and does not have the force of law. Simple resolutions are typically used for internal housekeeping or expressing the sentiments, opinions, or positions of the chamber on specific issues.
