This resolution requires the House of Representatives to convene daily during any period of a government shutdown, which is defined as a lapse in appropriations for any federal agency or department. During these meetings, the House faces strict limitations on recessing or adjourning, only permitted after five consecutive meeting days and for no more than two consecutive calendar days at a time. This ensures continuous legislative presence and activity throughout a funding lapse. Furthermore, the resolution mandates one or more recorded quorum calls on each day the House is in session during a shutdown, requiring every Member to electronically record their presence. The Sergeant-at-Arms is authorized to impose fines on Members who fail to record their presence for two or more consecutive days, with exceptions for illness. Initial fines are $500, increasing to $2,500 for subsequent offenses, and cannot be paid using campaign or official funds. Members have the right to appeal these fines to the Committee on Ethics, which will review the appeal within a specified timeframe. If a fine remains unpaid after 90 days following the Ethics Committee's determination or the appeal deadline, the Chief Administrative Officer will deduct the amount directly from the Member's salary. This resolution applies to all Members of the House, including Delegates and the Resident Commissioner, and does not restrict the House from conducting other business consistent with its rules.
