  • February 26, 2020 Chairman David Skaggs Co-Chairwoman Allison
    February 26, 2020 Chairman David Skaggs Co-Chairwoman Allison Hayward Office of Congressional Ethics 425 3rd Street, SW Suite 1110 Washington, DC 20024 Dear Chairman Skaggs and Co-Chairwoman Hayward: We write to request that the Office of Congressional Ethics (“OCE”) investigate whether Representative Devin Nunes is receiving free legal services in violation of the Rules of the House of Representatives (“House rules”). Specifically, Representative Nunes retained an attorney who represents him in several defamation lawsuits in various courts where he seeks a total of nearly $1 billion in damages. House rules prohibit a Member from receiving free legal services, unless the Member establishes a Legal Expense Fund (“LEF”). According to the House Legislative Resource Center, Representative Nunes has not filed any of the required reports to establish an LEF. The relevant facts detailed below establish that the OCE Board should authorize an investigation of Representative Nunes. Representative Nunes’s overt involvement with the highly-publicized lawsuits threatens to establish a precedent that the Legal Expense Fund (“LEF”) regulations no longer apply to Members. Although Representative Nunes is entitled to legal representation and he may pursue any legal action to protect and defend his interests, he must comply with House rules. An OCE investigation will preserve Representative Nunes’s legal right to counsel while upholding well-established House rules and precedent. House Rules Prohibit Members from Receiving Discounted or Free Legal Services A Member of the House of Representatives “may not knowingly accept a gift” with limited exceptions.1 A “gift” is defined to include “a gratuity, favor, discount, entertainment, hospitality, loan, forbearance, or other item having monetary value.

Under the First Amendment, the government cannot compel Twitter to produce information related to the Account unless it “can show a compelling interest in the sought-after material and a sufficient nexusbetween the subject matter of the investigation and the information it seek[s].” Inre Grand Jury Subpoena No. 11116275,846 F. Supp. 2d 1, 4 (D.D.C.2012)(internal quotation marksomitted).While Twitter does not have visibility into the purpose of the Subpoena, Twitter has serious concerns whether the government can meet this standard given the context in which it has received the Subpoena. It appears to Twitter that the Subpoena may be related to Congressman Devin Nunes’s repeated efforts to unmask individuals behind parody accounts critical of him. His efforts to suppress critical speech are as well-publicized as they are unsuccessful.He recently sued Twitter, attempting to hold it liable for speech by the parody Twitter accounts @DevinCow, @DevinNunesMom,@fireDevinNunes,and @DevinGrapes, and asking the court in that case to Case 1:20-sc-03082-BAH Document 3 Filed 03/10/21 Page 2 of 16 order Twitter to disclose information identifying those accounts.

First sworn in as a freshman to the 93rd Congress after winning a special election on March 6, 1973, Congressman Young is today the Dean of the House and the longest serving member of the current Congress. Congressman Young served as Chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee from 1995 to 2001 and then as the Chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee from 2001-2007.

    Tulare Joint Union High School District Board Packet November 19, 2015 Meeting of November 19, 2015 FOR: INFORMATION TULARE JOINT UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT TO: MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES RECEIVE: Interdistrict Attendance Agreement with Tulare County and Amendment to Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 5117 on Interdistrict Attendance Background: The Education Code provides that once an interdistrict attendance transfer is granted, the student does not have to reapply for an interdistrict transfer each year, and the district of enrollment must allow the student to continue to attend the school in which he or she is enrolled. (Ed Code § 46600.) Thus, the student is not required to reapply each year in order to continue to attend the school. However, school districts may enter agreements providing different terms. The agreement must state the terms and conditions under which interdistrict attendance will be permitted or denied. The agreement may also establish the terms and conditions under which the interdistrict attendance permit (agreement between the school districts and student) may be revoked. The law allows a parent or guardian to request that their student be allowed to enroll in the schools of a district in which the parent or guardian does not reside. (Ed. Code § 46600 et seq.) The Countywide Interdistrict Attendance Agreement addresses the need for an agreement between school districts to allow for the Interdistrict attendance of students. The original Countywide Interdistrict Attendance Agreement was created in 2011 to address the change in the law that provided that once a student was granted an Interdistrict transfer, he or she could remain in the district of enrollment and did not need to reapply each year.
