This is a misunderstanding of what the term "resolution" means - it's a topic for debate introduced by a delegate, not agreed-upon policy. From the link:What is a resolution?
A resolution is a proposal that asks the RFS or AMA to take a position and/or an action. A resolution consists of at least one directive to take action or a new/amended position statement accompanied by supporting statements or facts. Once a resolution is submitted, it is debated at the RFS meeting and considered by the reference committee.
If directed at the RFS and adopted at the meeting, the resolved clause becomes known as a position statement and is added to the Digest of Actions (PDF). If directed at AMA, depending on its urgency, it can either be immediately forwarded to the House of Delegates (HOD) at the same meeting or sent forth at a future meeting. If the resolution is adopted in the HOD, it becomes AMA policy and is added to PolicyFinder.
