This resolution proposes the establishment of a Select Committee on President Biden's Cognitive Decline within the House of Representatives. Composed of 13 members appointed by the Speaker, with five chosen in consultation with the minority leader, the committee aims to investigate alleged issues surrounding the former President's cognitive health. The resolution asserts that there is overwhelming evidence of a coverup regarding the extent of his cognitive decline, necessitating congressional inquiry to determine who was executing presidential powers and duties. The committee's primary functions include investigating the facts, circumstances, and causes of this alleged coverup, encompassing activities of intelligence and law enforcement agencies, as well as the potential role of technology and foreign influence. It will also identify lessons learned regarding federal government command, control, and communication structures. The Select Committee is mandated to issue a final report by September 25, 2026, detailing its findings, conclusions, and recommendations for corrective measures, such as changes in law or policy to prevent future coverups and improve public understanding of presidential health. Importantly, the committee will not possess legislative jurisdiction but can submit legislative proposals to other House committees.
