What this bill does
S.Res. 397 is a simple resolution introduced by Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) in the 117th Congress. As its title indicates, it was intended to recognize the 25th anniversary of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA). Because the full text of the resolution has not been published in the materials available here, the specific language, findings, or details it may contain cannot be described. What is known is limited to its stated purpose—commemorating the NGA's 25th anniversary—and its formal status.
Simple resolutions like this one are typically symbolic. They express the sentiment of the Senate but do not carry the force of law, do not create new programs or spending, and do not directly regulate any individuals, agencies, or industries. In this case, the resolution's subject is the NGA itself, a federal agency involved in national security and intelligence work, but no operational or policy changes are indicated in the information provided.
Procedurally, this resolution has already completed the legislative process. It was submitted, considered, and agreed to by the Senate without amendment, with a preamble, by unanimous consent on September 29, 2021. Since simple resolutions do not go to the House or the President, no further action is required or expected.
