This resolution of inquiry formally requests the President to transmit a range of documents and communications to the House of Representatives within 14 days of its adoption. These materials must be provided in complete and unredacted form and relate to specific government agency actions and directives concerning a potential or actual lapse in appropriations. Specifically, the resolution seeks information on an Office of Management and Budget directive regarding employee communications about a shutdown, as well as messages posted by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and modified out-of-office emails from the Department of Education that attributed blame for a government shutdown to specific political groups. Furthermore, it requests all communications between the Office of the President, Vice President, OPM, OMB, and the Office of Special Counsel concerning whether these official government messages violated sections 7323 or 7324 of title 5, or section 1341 of title 31, United States Code.
