This concurrent resolution establishes a new rule requiring George Washington's "Farewell Address" to be read aloud at the commencement of each new Congress. Specifically, this reading will occur on the first day of the first regular session of every Congress. The resolution stipulates that the Address will be read in the Senate by a Senator designated by the majority leader, and in the House of Representatives by a Representative designated by the Speaker. This measure is adopted as an exercise of the rulemaking power of both the House and Senate, acknowledging each chamber's constitutional right to modify its own rules at any time.
