Bill > HRes480

This resolution requires all Members of Congress, officers, and employees of the House of Representatives to complete a mandatory training program on workplace rights and responsibilities during each Congressional session. The training, which must be implemented within 30 days of the resolution's adoption, will cover anti-discrimination and anti-harassment topics under the Congressional Accountability Act. The program applies not just to full-time staff, but also to interns, fellows, and detailees from other federal offices, with a specific exception for those who have already completed similar training during new Member orientation. Participants must complete the training and file a certificate of completion within 90 days of the program's certification, with potential alternative deadlines for short-term employees or those joining late in a Congressional session. The Committee on House Administration will be responsible for issuing regulations, developing the training program, and considering additional mechanisms to ensure compliance. The resolution specifically addresses the first session of the 119th Congress, providing a timeline for implementation.
