Bill Summary
Of inquiry requesting the President to transmit certain information to the House of Representatives referring to United States Government agencies sharing certain communications with the public and Federal employees.
AI Summary
This resolution requests the President to provide the House of Representatives with specific documents within 14 days of the resolution's adoption, relating to government communications during a potential funding lapse in October 2025. The requested documents include communications from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) directing federal agencies to use certain language in employee communications, a Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) website message criticizing Congress, and a Department of Education email modification that places blame for the government shutdown. Additionally, the resolution seeks documents exchanged between various government offices, including the President's, Vice President's, and Office of Personnel Management, investigating whether these communications potentially violated federal laws (specifically sections 7323, 7324 of title 5, and section 1341 of title 31) regarding political activities and appropriations during a government funding lapse. The resolution appears aimed at understanding the potential political messaging and legal implications of government agency communications during a hypothetical government shutdown scenario.
