This resolution formally notifies the House of Representatives that the Senate elected Senator Chuck Grassley to serve as President pro tempore, the officer who presides over the Senate when the Vice President is absent. The President pro tempore is third in the presidential line of succession, after the Vice President and the Speaker of the House, and the role traditionally goes to the most senior senator in the majority party. This is a routine procedural resolution that carries no funding, no penalties, and no changes to federal law or programs. It simply records the Senate's leadership choice for the official record.
