{{Short description|Resolution adopted by both houses of a bicameral leglislature}}
A '''concurrent resolution''' is a [[Resolution (law)|resolution]] (a [[Legislation|legislative]] measure) adopted by both houses of a [[Bicameralism|bicameral legislature]] that lacks the force of [[law]] (is [[non-binding resolution|non-binding]]) and does not require the approval of the [[head of government|chief executive]] ([[President (government title)|president]]). Concurrent resolutions are typically adopted to regulate the internal affairs of the legislature that adopted them, or for other purposes, if authority of law is not necessary (such as in the cases of [[award]]s or recognitions).<ref>{{cite web |title=Bills and Resolutions: Examples of How Each Kind Is Used |url=http://assets.opencrs.com/rpts/98-706_20101202.pdf |first=Richard |last=Beth |date=December 2, 2010 |access-date=August 9, 2013 |publisher=[[Congressional Research Service]] |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140316034853/http://assets.opencrs.com/rpts/98-706_20101202.pdf |archive-date=2014-03-16 }}</ref>
