AI-generated summary, report an errorThis Senate resolution would bar Senators from using money in their official office expense account to pay for travel between Washington, D.C. and their primary home during a government shutdown. The rule applies to both direct payments and reimbursements to the Senator for that travel. A government shutdown is defined as any period when funding has lapsed for one or more federal agencies.
