| Remarks | IMPLEMENTED |
| Whereas | There are two distinct types of resolutions that are considered within Student Congress; and |
| Whereas | The first of these types is internal legislation, that which deals only with Student Congress operations & procedures or positions adopted by the Student Congress body on issues (i.e. - no action endorsed within UTA jurisdiction) and both of these catergories do not require a routing slip from Student Congress to the President's Office; and |
| Whereas | The second type of legislation is external, that which requires direct approval from the President and an official routing slip from Student Congress; and |
| Whereas | The above situation has previously led to confusion about resolutions both within and outside of Student Congress; and |
| Whereas | A simple method of categorizing resolutions would clarify the situation for both Student Congress representatives and non-representative alike. |
| Be It Further Resolved That | On all future resolutions, the category of "internal" or "external" be assigned to each resolution by the author(s) or sponsor(s); and |
| Be It Further Resolved That | This information be provided on the standard resolution form. |
