HRES 212 Passed House Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.
Returning Senate Joint Resolution 3 to the Senate.
Summary
This House resolution returns Senate Joint Resolution 3 to the Senate based on a constitutional objection. The resolution asserts that the Senate joint resolution, which disapproves of an IRS rule on broker gross proceeds reporting for digital asset sales, violates the Origination Clause of the Constitution, which requires revenue-related legislation to originate in the House rather than the Senate. The House formally communicates this constitutional concern to the Senate along with the returned resolution.
