Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection.
H.Res. 888 is a resolution that would censure Delegate Stacey Plaskett of the U.S. Virgin Islands and remove her from the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. The resolution alleges that Plaskett inappropriately coordinated with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during a February 2019 congressional hearing, receiving real-time text message instructions on her lines of questioning while testifying about Michael Cohen. According to the resolution, Plaskett—a former Department of Justice official—maintained political and professional connections with Epstein even after his 2008 conviction for sex crimes involving minors and continued contact through his 2019 arrest. The resolution directs the House Ethics Committee to conduct a full investigation into Plaskett's relationship with Epstein and any related misconduct. The measure was introduced by a bipartisan group of House members and has been referred to the Committee on Ethics but does not require funding or establish any timeline for implementation.
