  • House Committee on Ethics: a Brief History of Its Evolution and Jurisdiction
    House Committee on Ethics: A Brief History of Its Evolution and Jurisdiction Updated March 22, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov 98-15 House Committee on Ethics: A Brief History of Its Evolution and Jurisdiction Summary The United States Constitution (Article 1, Section 5, clause 1) provides each House of Congress with the sole authority to establish rules, judge membership requirements, and punish and expel Members. From 1789 to 1967, the House of Representatives dealt with disciplinary action against Members on a case-by-case basis, often forming ad-hoc committees to investigate and make recommendations when acts of wrongdoing were brought to the chamber’s attention. Events of the 1960s, including the investigation of Representative Adam Clayton Powell for alleged misuse of Education and Labor Committee funds, prompted the creation of a permanent ethics committee and the writing of a Code of Conduct for Members, officers, and staff of the House. Begun as a select committee in the 89th Congress (1965-1966), the House created a 12-member panel to “recommend to the House … such … rules or regulations … necessary or desirable to insure proper standards of conduct by Members of the House and by officers and employees of the House, in the performance of their duties and the discharge of their responsibilities.” Acting on the select committee’s recommendations, the House created a permanent Committee on Standards of Official Conduct in the 90th Congress (1967-1968). In the 112th Congress (2011- 2012), the committee was renamed the Committee on Ethics. This report briefly outlines the background of ethics enforcement in the House of Representatives, including the creation of both the Select Committee on Ethics and the Committee on Ethics.

    RESOLUTION NO.: 50-2007 OFFERED BY: Mayor Ursu and All of Council A RESOLUTION OPPOSING OHIO SUBSTITUTE SENATE BILL 117 AND SUPPORTING THE LOCAL CABLE FRANCHISING PROCESS; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY WHEREAS, Substitute Senate Bill (“Sub. SB”) 117 was passed in the Ohio Senate on May 9, 2007 and the bill was immediately forwarded to the Ohio House of Representatives where it is being reviewed by the House Public Utilities Committee in which Sponsor’s introduction and proponents' hearing is expected to commence on May 23, 2007 with opponents' hearing to follow; and WHEREAS, in its present form, Sub. SB 117 continues to provide for the elimination of local franchise authority over cable and other video service providers that must use the City’s rights-of-way to provide service and would replace that authority with only the most minimal oversight and enforcement powers by the Ohio Director of Commerce; and WHEREAS, Sub. SB 117 would permit cable operators to unilaterally abrogate and abandon existing cable/video contracts with municipalities even if no new competitive video service is offered in those communities and would outlaw the extension of any current franchise agreement thereby abrogating the City's current franchise agreement with Time Warner Cable which was negotiated in good faith; and WHEREAS, Sub. SB 117 will continue to reduce the franchise fees paid to the City by cable operators and/or other video service providers in exchange for using the City’s rights-of- way, and would severely impair the City’s ability to audit cable and competitive video service providers’ franchise fee payments; and WHEREAS, Sub.
