Summary

This resolution establishes new requirements for raising questions of privilege in the House of Representatives for the remainder of the One Hundred Nineteenth Congress . It specifically targets resolutions offered from the floor concerning the conduct of any Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner , modifying existing House Rule IX. Under these new provisions, a resolution offered by the Majority or Minority Leader must have one-fifth of the total House membership as cosponsors at the time it is offered to be entertained. For other Members, an announcement of intent to offer such a resolution requires it to have maintained one-fifth cosponsor support for at least one legislative day after its introduction. The resolution also dispenses with the need for an oral announcement regarding the form of these specific privilege resolutions, streamlining the process while imposing a higher threshold for their consideration.
