To modify the appointment process for the Librarian of Congress, the Comptroller General, and the Director of the Government Publishing Office, and for other purposes.

This bill significantly alters the appointment and removal processes for three key federal officials: the Librarian of Congress , the Comptroller General , and the Director of the Government Publishing Office . For the Librarian of Congress and the Director of the Government Publishing Office, new commissions composed of congressional leaders and relevant committee members would recommend candidates. These individuals would then be appointed by a concurrent resolution of Congress, shifting power from presidential nomination and Senate confirmation. The bill establishes a 10-year term for the Librarian of Congress and allows for removal of both the Librarian and the Director of the Government Publishing Office by a three-fifths vote of both the House and Senate. For the Comptroller General, the bill amends existing law to also require appointment by concurrent resolution of Congress, based on a commission's recommendation, and specifies removal by concurrent resolution. These changes aim to enhance congressional oversight and involvement in the selection of these important roles.
