Bill Summary · HR 309

Summary — H.R. 309 (as provided)

Note up front: the materials you supplied appear to be a compilation of multiple, distinct resolutions and document fragments from different jurisdictions (including a federal-style sponsors list and committee actions, an Alabama House resolution honoring a robotics mentor, a Georgia House resolution honoring a volunteer, and an Illinois House resolution honoring a basketball player). The bill title you gave — commending the Catholic High School of New Iberia Panthers football team for winning the 2024 LHSAA Division III Select championship — does not appear as substantive text in the provided document. Because of those inconsistencies, this summary identifies (A) the stated title and likely purpose, (B) the actual contents included in the package you provided, and (C) procedural status items shown in the record.

A. Stated title and likely primary purpose

  • Title (provided): “Commends the Catholic High School of New Iberia Panthers football team on winning the Louisiana High School Athletic Association 2024 Division III Select championship.”
  • Likely intent: a non‑binding commendation/resolution that formally recognizes and honors the Catholic High School of New Iberia Panthers football team for winning the 2024 LHSAA Division III Select championship. Such a resolution typically: (1) recites the team’s achievement, (2) congratulates players/coaches/school, and (3) directs the Clerk to provide a copy to the school/team. It carries no regulatory or funding effects.

B. Other substantive texts included in the package

The provided file contains several unrelated resolutions and fragments. Key items explicitly present:

  1. Alabama House resolution commending Retired Staff Sergeant Wesley Porter

    • Recognizes Porter’s role as coach/mentor of Alba Robotics Team 14180A “The Super Novas.”
    • Lists student team members, invitations to the 2025 U.S. Open Robotics Tournament, awards, and honors (e.g., Mentor of the Year at the 2025 U.S. Open; Teacher of the Year at Alabama State Robotics Championship).
    • Concludes with a formal commendation by the Alabama House.
  2. Georgia House resolution honoring Rilyn Rodgers

    • Recognizes a 16‑year‑old for volunteer disaster relief after Hurricane Helene.
    • Details activities: organizing distribution points, managing social media for information, cleanup and support for displaced families.
    • Authorizes the Clerk to provide a copy of the resolution to Rilyn Rodgers.
  3. Illinois House resolution honoring Marcos Gonzales

    • Congratulates Marcos Gonzales (Brother Rice High School) as the 2024–25 Daily Southtown Boys Basketball Player of the Year.
    • Notes season statistics (18.6 PPG, 5.6 RPG, 3.1 APG) and team accomplishments (state runner‑up, program milestones).
  4. Additional stray lines: an opening line referencing the “National Law Enforcement Officers Remembrance, Support and Community Outreach Act” and other fragments that do not align with the title.

C. Procedural / status information (as provided)

  • Introduced: January 9, 2025.
  • Committee referral: Referred to House Committee on Natural Resources; subsequently referred to Subcommittee on Federal Lands (per the record you supplied).
  • Actions listed (chronology in the file):
    • Referred to committee: 2025-01-09
    • Rules suspended / Adopted / Read and Adopted: Feb–June 2025 (multiple entries)
    • Reported enrolled; enrolled and signed by Speaker: Feb–Jun 2025
    • Taken by Clerk and presented to Secretary of State: 2025-06-11
    • Subcommittee hearings held: 2025-09-18
  • A very large sponsors/cosponsors list is included (dozens of Members), which suggests a different, likely federal, H.R. file; this is inconsistent with the local-state resolution text fragments.

D. Impact and effect

  • If the intended measure is a commendation/resolution recognizing the New Iberia Panthers, it is symbolic only: no legal, regulatory, or fiscal effects. Primary beneficiaries are the team, school, students, coaches, and community recognition.
  • The included other resolutions similarly have symbolic effect within their respective legislatures (Alabama, Georgia, Illinois), honoring individuals and therefore no policy or funding impact.
  • Because of multiple, conflicting documents in the packet, there is uncertainty about final jurisdiction and the official text. No substantive policy changes or appropriations are evident.

Recommendation

  • Verify the authoritative source (state or federal legislative database) for H.R. 309 to confirm which single resolution/text is the official filing for that bill number and jurisdiction.
  • If the goal is to capture the commemoration of the Catholic High School of New Iberia Panthers, obtain the final text of that specific resolution to confirm wording, any directives to clerks, and the official sponsors.
