House Resolution Expresses Sorrow Over Death of Rep. Raúl Grijalva, Mandates Adjournment

This resolution formally expresses the profound sorrow of the U.S. House of Representatives following the death of Representative Raúl M. Grijalva of Arizona. It's a standard, yet significant, procedural action taken by the chamber to officially recognize the passing of one of its members.

The resolution directs specific actions as part of this formal acknowledgment. First, it instructs the Clerk of the House to communicate the resolution to the U.S. Senate and to send a copy directly to Representative Grijalva's family. Second, it mandates that the House adjourns its proceedings for the day as a mark of respect for their late colleague. While not impacting policy directly, these steps represent the established protocol within Congress for honoring a member's service and offering official condolences.
