Bill > SRes609

This resolution authorizes employees from the offices of Senators Ted Budd, Kevin Cramer, and John Cornyn to testify in the legal case *United States v. Crouse*, a criminal case pending in a federal court. Specifically, Ryan Alban from Senator Budd's office, Lisa Gibbens from Senator Cramer's office, and Jill Wyman from Senator Cornyn's office are permitted to provide testimony, with the important caveat that they can refuse to answer questions if a legal privilege applies, such as protecting confidential Senate information. The resolution also directs the Senate Legal Counsel, who provides legal advice and representation to the Senate, to represent these employees in this matter, as allowed by the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 and the Senate's own rules which protect its documents and information from being taken without permission.
