A resolution prohibiting the use of funds for travel by Senators to or from their residence during Government shutdowns.

This resolution proposes to restrict the use of official funds by Senators for travel between the seat of Government and their primary residence during periods of government shutdown. It explicitly states that amounts made available from the Senators' Official Personnel and Office Expense Account may not be used to directly pay for or reimburse a Senator for such travel expenses. The prohibition applies specifically when there is a lapse in appropriations for one or more Federal agencies. The intent is to ensure that taxpayer funds are not utilized for these particular travel costs during times when federal operations are impacted by a lack of funding. Consequently, Senators would be responsible for covering these travel expenses themselves during a shutdown.
