Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This House resolution requires all Members of Congress, officers, and employees of the House of Representatives to complete mandatory workplace rights and responsibilities training during each session of Congress. The training must cover anti-discrimination and anti-harassment policies under the Congressional Accountability Act, and applies to everyone working in House offices, including interns, fellows, and federal detailees. The House Administration Committee has 30 days to create regulations implementing this requirement, and individuals must complete the training and file a certificate within 90 days of when the program becomes operational or when they start working for the House. New members who complete the training during orientation programs are exempt from repeating it in their first session. The resolution includes flexibility for alternative deadlines for short-term staff like interns and those who join near the end of a congressional session.
