Plain-language change summary

The amendment adds the phrase “and that the House is ready to proceed with business” to the resolution. This clarification specifies not only that a quorum is present but also indicates the House's readiness to conduct its activities. This change matters because it formally communicates to the Senate that the House is prepared to engage in legislative business, potentially affecting the flow and coordination of activities between the two chambers.
