Directing Members required to reimburse the Treasury for payments related to certain claims to appear before the Clerk for public disclosure of the reasons for the reimbursement.

This House resolution sets rules for Members of the House who must repay the U.S. Treasury for payments made to settle certain workplace claims, such as harassment or discrimination claims, under the Congressional Accountability Act. When the Office of Congressional Workplace Rights sends its report on these payments, the Committee on House Administration must pass it to the Clerk and give copies to the affected current and former Members and to the Sergeant-at-Arms. Each current Member named must appear in the well of the House while the Clerk publicly reads the Member's name, the payment amount, whether it has been repaid, and related report details. A Member who does not do this within 30 days must stop committee activity and party leadership duties until they comply. Former Members named in a report lose access to the House floor until they repay the money and take part in the same public reading.
