Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Resolution
HRES 178, titled "Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Resolution," would reduce each House member's annual representational allowance (funding for district office operations and constituent services) by $100,000 for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 compared to the 2025 level. This applies to all current and future House members, directly affecting their annual budget for local office expenses. The key provision sets the 2026 and 2027 allowance equal to the 2025 amount minus $100,000, creating a uniform reduction. As a procedural resolution, it would require the House Administration Committee to implement this change in the budget.
