About 'Sense of Congress' Resolutions
They do not make law and are not enforceable

When members of the House, Senate or entire Congress want to "send a message," or state an opinion, they try to pass a "sense of" resolution. Since such resolutions do not create law, what good are they?
Simple or joint resolutions expressing the "sense of" the Senate, House or Congress merely express a majority opinion. They do not make law and are not enforceable. Only bills and joint resolutions create laws.

"Sense of" legislation can come in the form of Simple Resolutions (H.Res. or S.Res.), used to express the opinion of the House or Senate alone, or as Concurrent Resolutions (H.Con.Res. or S.Con.Res.) used to express the opinion of the entire Congress. "Sense of" resolutions can also be added as amendments to regular House or Senate bills. Even when added to regular bills, "sense of" amendments have no force law.

  -> Köszönöm (bár én épp azt próbáltam aláhúzni a javaslatommal, hogy a "megítélés" vagy "vélemény" ebben a szövegösszefüggésben nem elég; a "Sense of" típusú határozat jogi fogalom, amelyhez legjobban a magyar "állásfoglalás" közelít)
