Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This resolution would change the ethics rules of the U.S. House of Representatives. Current House rules bar a Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner from having a sexual relationship with a House employee who works under their supervision or who works for a committee on which they serve. The resolution would remove that limiting language, so the ban would cover sexual relationships with any House employee.
