Amending the Rules of the House of Representatives to prohibit a Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner from cohabitating with any employee of the House of Representatives.
The proposed bill, HR1466, aims to change the rules of the House of Representatives to prevent Members, Delegates, or Resident Commissioners from living with any employee of the House. This means that if you're a representative and you live with someone who works for the House, it would not be allowed under this new rule.
This rule would affect anyone who holds a position as a Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner in the House, as well as the employees they might be living with. If the bill passes, these relationships would be prohibited to avoid conflicts of interest or any appearance of favoritism.
As of the last update on July 30, 2026, the bill has just been introduced and referred to the House Committee on Ethics. This means it's in the early stages of the legislative process and is now being reviewed by the committee for further action.
