  • Passed Chamber
  • Enacted
This resolution mandates that the Committee on House Administration establish a recurring program of training on workplace rights and responsibilities for all personnel within the House of Representatives. This training, which must include anti-discrimination and anti-harassment components, applies to every Member, officer, and employee, as well as interns, fellows, and detailees, during each session of each Congress. The goal is to ensure a thorough understanding of applicable standards under the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995. The Committee is required to issue regulations within 30 days of the resolution's adoption, with most individuals needing to complete the training and file a certificate within 90 days of the program's certification or their start date. However, the Committee may set alternative deadlines for interns, fellows, or those joining late in a session to accommodate their specific circumstances. An exception exists for new Members who complete the training during their orientation program, and the Committee must also consider additional mechanisms to ensure compliance.
