Status snapshot
- Bill number / type: H.R. 339 — House resolution (commemorative)
- Introduced: January 13, 2025
- Latest procedural status (from provided record): Read by title and returned to the calendar (06/10/2025); previously scheduled for floor debate and at times placed on various calendars. Also shown as withdrawn from the files of the House (06/10/2025) in the provided actions — see “Notes / caveats” below.

- Related/companion bill noted: H.R. 1617
Main purpose and intent
- According to the bill title, H.R. 339 is a non‑binding, honorary resolution that commends the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry (LABI) on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary. Its intent is recognition — to formally acknowledge LABI’s service, contributions, and historic milestone.
Key provisions and substance
- The available materials do not include a cohesive text specific to the LABI commendation; instead, the document bundle appears to contain multiple unrelated draft resolutions (honoring different individuals/organizations in various states). No substantive legislative (statutory or appropriations) provisions are present in the material supplied.
- Typical content for this class of House resolution would:
- Express congratulations to LABI on 50 years of operation.
- Cite LABI’s contributions to the state’s business climate, advocacy, workforce development, and economic growth.
- Direct the Clerk of the House to send an official copy of the resolution to LABI leadership (common closing language).
Who would be affected / impact
- Direct legal impact: None. This is a ceremonial resolution and does not create legal rights, duties, or funding.
- Practical/recognitional impact: LABI, its member businesses, partner organizations, and Louisiana stakeholders would be the intended beneficiaries of public recognition and congressional commendation. The resolution could be used by LABI for publicity and institutional record‑keeping.
Procedural and timeline notes
- The provided legislative actions show multiple calendar placements, readings, and at least one instance where the resolution was adopted/placed on congratulatory calendars. However, the most recent listed actions indicate the measure was read by title and returned to the calendar on 06/10/2025 and also show it was “withdrawn from the files of the House” the same day. These entries are inconsistent.
- Because the supplied document contains fragments of different states’ House resolutions (Alabama, Georgia, Illinois), there appears to be a clerical or compilation error in the text bundle.
Notes / recommended verification
- The official Congressional Record, Clerk of the House website, or the sponsor’s office should be consulted to obtain the clean, authoritative text of H.R. 339 as intended (the LABI commendation) and to confirm current status. The mixed content in the supplied packet suggests an aggregation or versioning error; do not rely on the included unrelated drafts for the resolution’s text.
