This bill does precisely that - it specifically makes no imposition on the rights of any private citizen. Making it a resolution will make it worthless, since any government will be free to ignore it.

And it makes absolutely no sense that a resolution of this chamber should have Presidential assent - that's only to enact laws. I also don't see the sense in having a referendum on a non-binding resolution that everyone's free to ignore.
