HRES 1466 United States House · 119th Congress

Amending the Rules of the House of Representatives to prohibit a Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner from cohabitating with any employee of the House of Representatives.

This resolution proposes adding a new rule to the House of Representatives that bans Members, Delegates, and Resident Commissioners from living with any House employee. The only exception to this ban is for couples who are legally married to one another. If adopted, the change would directly affect the personal living arrangements of elected officials and their relationships with staff members. The measure aims to clarify ethical boundaries regarding cohabitation between lawmakers and the employees they oversee.
